Just a word of caution about doing banking or storing and accessing sites with your sensitive personal data on them for anyone using an Android phone. The Google Play store has been compromised numerous times by malware in the past few years, and at last estimate I could find, over 99% of all smartphone malware is made for Android. That's because Google does not have humans vetting the code in apps submitted to its store, it relies on software to do the job instead. Malware apps have been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times before being discovered in the past. I'm sure a search for "google play malware" in your favorite search engine will turn up the stories. Apple has humans examine the code for its iOS apps before they can be released onto the App Store. It has also been compromised once or twice in the past, but the scope was more limited.
