Much better compared to engage , pb already soft launch this app last year and now pb silently migrating from engage to this

Usb debugging is also present on other banks app. This and OS version requirements is probably to meet BNM regulation

Not to say latest, but still with OS support.
Because security patches get rolled out to close vulnerabilities.

Later obsolete phone download malware kena hack, I don't think there will be many taking responsibility for their actions.

Correction is detected usb debugging, because usb debugging can be abused for certain malicious activities. (Although useful for some like debloating or shizuku for some advanced permission)

Xiaomi also have similar pop up warning with countdown when try enabling this usb debugging

lol the most unreliable way to prevent malicious acts
if it's not implemented properly the app will keep prompting debugging detected

especially when you have many android phones that work differently

So many steps in activating the new APP, in the end still requires us to go to the bank for final activation. doh.gif

Activating thru ATM is no difference than activating at bank since PBB ATM is only found at their bank and almost nowhere else.

I downloaded it recently. quite good, no bugs yet.

The interface is clean (unlike some s̶h̶o̶p̶p̶i̶n̶g̶ banking app)
Notifications are accurate, no spams so far.

Worse bank ever but this app is quite good. It is so much better than the previous version. I only used them when helping my mom transfer funds and the old app is dog shit that she struggled to navigate.

You follow instruction on the app, it brings you back to PBengage to approve, then a message pop up says need to go ATM.

I cancel the process at that stage

Read more PBB FAQ, they say can email them lah to activate. Dunno want to try or not.

Why must block devices with USB debugging enabled? Apps from Play Store are code signed and sandboxed. What a flawed threat detection model that’s more designed to frustrate users rather than actually be secure.

Small amount or big amount, becoz I clearly recall when registering the new APP, it said need final activation for authorising transfer beyond certain amount.

Edit: I just log in to the APP, it said the PB SecureSign activation is in progress. Only quick payment of RM250 (chosen during APP set up) is in green.

Oh, that sucks. The bank officer also cannot directly activate without ATM card, think of it as a security feature so insider job to steal customer money won’t be so easy. I guess only the HQ specific department handling this, branch staff aren’t given such high clearance. hmm.gif

Okay, u went half way. But I think it’s just matter of time before they totally disable the old APP once overall transition is done.
