I am planning to buy myself a Jolla phone later this year.

Planning to use it in parallel with my Android phone, I want to prep for switching off Android.

Banking apps and eGovernment apps is going to be a massive issue. I am really hoping there will be a big push in Europe to adopt SailfishOS.

It says it'll support android apps through a compatability layer.

I highly doubt banking and eGov apps will work through the compatibility layer. But that's why I want to try using both phones in parallel; to find how to best manage the transition.

Let us know how it goes. I'd love one, but I'm not in the EU.
