I'm largely talking about the Android OS APIs that didn't exist prior to 6.0. What the compatibility matrix looks like between Android 6.0 and older generations of SE hardware, I have no idea. Presumably the OP's banking app will check for the specific SE functionality it needs, and refuse to do the thing if the hardware doesn't support it. | |
