OCBC introduces a security feature that locks out access if it detects mobile apps downloaded from unofficial app stores on the user's phone. The bank cites the need to safeguard against malware, but is instead frustrating customers.
Plugins and addons for other apps is probably the original motivator for this. Also handy to check if an app is present to listen to the intent signal you’re about to send out.
Of course, then the malware/spyware writers got ahold of it and here we are. Something with good intentions and assholes come along and ruin it for everyone. Kinda like pop up windows and cookies.
