I know it’s ironic, but buy a Pixel for your next phone(1) and use GrapheneOS. It sandboxes all of the Google stuff so it can’t track you across the device, only within the sandboxed app or service itself. Chances are all of your financial apps will still work (mine did including Paypal, the pickiest by far) and the only downside I experienced was less than ideal keyboard error correction and complicated voice-to-text setup (required a third party voice recog service since Google’s didn’t exist in GrapheneOS).
(1) Don’t buy it new, get one from Swappa or the equivalent trusted used phone marketplace in your country.
YSK: Android has a similar option, but it is not enforced, so individual Android apps can completely ignore this and still track you.
And this is part of why I root.
Only certain apps get network access, and only certain apps get to use Google services.
They’ll complain, some won’t work.
Next phone won’t have Google services at all, and untrustworthy apps will be sandboxed in their own profiles.
