Both of my current banks do - the one that didn't is the one I no longer bank with after someone ran amok in Sao Paolo in bars for about 3 weeks (and it took 3 months to sort out the initial chaos & a further 6 for them to stop attracting the fraudulent charges to my account - and they wondered...

It's a heart ache for sure.

Plus the internet has moved on - no longer do you need a bespoke app for a website - simply add to home screen in the browser. Essentially it creates a shortcut that opens in your browser - more or less exactly the same as many/most "apps" do...

There will inevitably be a flag for it. My info may well be applicable to an older version of Chrome. Sigh

They (shaver outlets) usually have 110V as well (limited to ~20W but that ought not to be an impediment)

Ah, well I can't help that. The handle of the big dipper is a reasonable pointer... Patrick Moore taught me (via Sky at Night) about 45 years ago :coat:

Pretty much that. On a minute by minute basis it's basically static so you can get pretty much dead on quite quickly

I've not felt the need to have the phone stuck to the mount - just use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lunari.polarfinderpro

Couple of external drives (different vendors) - one at bro-in-law's house (lashed to a Raspberry Pi connected via a private VPN), regularly rsynced to the one at my house & both backed up on Amazon cloud. He has the same arrangement at my house. I follow the three rules of backups: back it up...
