Today, banking apps are in wide use among consumers, not just professionals. Leading banks cooperate with experienced financial technology, or fintech, software-development companies to create efficient banking solutions that can meet the requirements of any customer.

Today, our reliance on mobile apps has increased radically. According to a 2021 article on TechCrunch, on average, users spend 4.2 hours a day on various applications on their mobile phone.
