    This keeps catching me out and it’s so annoying. Even more so when the cashier has to do something manual on the terminal to attempt the payment again.

    What happened to just needing to unlock the device?

    Google wallet won’t work with a custom rom with a way more recent security update. However, it will work on stock OS that hasn’t been updated for 3 years.

    For that reason, fuck Google wallet, and Google pay.

      It works, but requires a shit ton of time to constantly stay on top of fixing Play Integrity.

    Just use cash, or plastic. At least that way you won’t lose your money with your phone.

      Technically, mobile payment is more secure than cash and cards in terms of theft risk as you need to authenticate before using it.

      The only exception is a chip & pin card with NFC and magstripe disabled and no card number or CVV printed on it.

      You can’t do much with modern phones once reported stolen, most of them become bricks.
