If your Android 8.0 device (or any newer even) is no longer getting monthly security updates (which most don't) then I wouldn't be installing any banking applications on that device personally.

This is why I got a new smart phone, the android os on my tablet was way out of date and could not be updated. Even my Halifax app could not be use because they updated the app, which of course is a good thing due to securities issues.  

Android 8 is no longer supported by Google, and hasn't received security updates since October 2021.
Can you what the security update version is on your mobile?

See which Android version you have

Open your phone's Settings app.

Near the bottom, tap System And then System update.

See your 'Android version' and 'Android security update'.

Also sorry for another question.
Do you have to wait to get the current account before you can open the savings account.

You get the current account instantly after they accept your application. No need to wait for anything before you can set up the savings account.

You can even use the debit card instantly for online purchases or in ApplePay/GooglePay as all the card data is provided in the app. You will get the physical card within a few working days, too. But none of this is required for the savings account.

You need to open the current account first, and then you can open the savings account.

I've just signed up with relatively few problems. 

Anyone who has dual nationality might want to note that it asks you to confirm you are a UK citizen and then asks if you are also a national of any other country. As I am, I entered the relevant country, but it then said I could not apply as they are only accepting account holders who are UK resident. That makes no sense, because they did not ask about residence and this is not the same thing as citizenship.

As they appear to interpret the answer as meaning you are not UK resident, which is an incorrect inference for me, I went back and changed my answer to say UK citizen only. It seemed perfectly happy for me to change this and happily carried on.

As soon as your details are verified your current account will be open, so you can go ahead and open the savings account.  There are no additional checks for the savings account.

It took under an hour for my details to be verified - but it seems to vary a bit based on other comments on here.
