One question left regarding this matter. I really wanted the app to work on my smartphone. I thought: what if I install Google Play Services, set the app, and then remove Google Play Services? I tried, but I am not 100% sure what happened. I believe the system told me: can´t do that. Am I correct? Can one not install Google Play Services on a device with /e/OS? I hope not, because otherwise it wouldn’t be waterproof.
Thanks for the info, AnotherElk! Now I can be sure I haven´t corrupted my device in trying to install it (and remove it afterwards).
If you root your device (install Magisk) all of this trouble is gone anyway.
@Infinity that advice might apply if Safetynet trips, but this is not what happened to the triodos banking Apps what this thread is about (title should be renamed).
They fail on a module call. If the play services vision api module isn’t there to serve its function (face detection), App can’t continue. See linked github issue. Magisk isn’t a blanket solution to banking App issues.

@tcecyk: thank you for the explanation, didn’t mean to write BS. So far I got every banking app running with Magisk and some modules. I really didn’t know some apps actually NEED Google Play Services that can’t be faked.
Only the first time. You can ask for a Digipass.
Idem with Trade Republic application (de.traderepublic.app); it gets killed when needing face recognition:

Still no solution for that?
post your logcat with the appid in the title to the microg issues.
there is now partial mlkit support since late dec 2023. Implementing facerecognition seems a big feature, but just adding the dummy stub classes could keep traderepublic from crashing and maybe allow for a list of alternative means. Even if you cant do java/kotlin, creating stub classes is not hard, packaging it takes probably more time.
