Not just hsbc lots of safenet settings have a blacklist of apps they won't run with ..

It can be avoided by installing those blacklist apps in different accounts profiles or private space

Basically safenet let's apps say they won't run if anything is side loaded or instead with a third party app store

Maybe this is their long term plan to kill other apps stores... Let banking apps be the bad guy by volunteering for a high "safety net" setting
