    I hope we get tap to pay on GrapheneOS in the US soon. You can already use it in the EU with Curve and PayPal. It's a blocker for a lot of people.

    Hacker News seems generally not interested in private payments or how terrible the banking system is, which is disappointing.

      I&#x27;m already able to use tap to pay on GrapheneOS, just only with banking apps which use Android Pay, rather than Google Wallet.

        Yes, those as well. But I think only a few European banks have that.

      Klarna has NFC tap to pay in their app too. Not sure if it works outside Europe though.
