Flip your phone to automatically exit the app! ICBC came up with a new idea: Your money is safer

Xiao Lei has a question, what is the angle of this flipped mobile phone, will it be very sensitive? When I use my phone in bed to check my salary, will the app automatically quit because I turn over? (Just kidding, don't take it seriously)

The ICBC App launched this function in order to protect the safety of users' property, but many netizens put forward different views. Some netizens believe that Alipay and WeChat have always been in a login state, never need to log out, and do not hinder their security. App logins launched by major banks often require entering passwords or face verification, which is troublesome and not necessarily much safer than Alipay and WeChat.

First of all, Xiao Lei admitted that the security of these bank apps is higher than alipay and WeChat, after all, any operation requires password or face recognition, and the security is certainly high, but it is also true that netizens react too much trouble. Take Xiao Lei's experience, every time China Merchants Bank's handheld life App checks the bills and orders, it needs to re-enter the password, which is really very troublesome.

More importantly, now we generally do not leave the mobile phone, and the mobile phone has fingerprints, passwords, faces and other unlock methods, even if others take our mobile phones, they can not enter the desktop. Verifying the password when paying can indeed ensure security, but it is a bit redundant to enter the password every time you log in and view the order.

In addition, we often see information about various types of telecommunications fraud, most of which are victims who are deceived, take the initiative to send money, and can steal the user's mobile phone to transfer money to themselves, which is difficult to the sky. Under normal circumstances, those who can get our mobile phones and know the password are the people closest to us.

When convenience and security conflict, we need to consider which one to choose. Xiao Lei believes that security is very important, convenience is also very important, and it is acceptable to sacrifice a little security for convenience. The security of the bank app is already very high, there is no need to use this way to improve security, it is estimated that after this function is launched, there will not be many people willing to use it.
