This bothers me too - I would really prefer not to have to have a phone to interact in society. Phone farms have the technology to solve the problem you have - it's graceless, but it is an answer - essentially reducing things to servo-driven interactions with a phone.

Except then you're running your personal banking software on someone else's computer. It seems like something someone committed to a phone free lifestyle might possibly be mindful of and want to avoid. I think a better solution would be to get a tablet that's far too big to fit in a pocket would be a better solution. No temptation to take it with you on short errand runs because it's way too big to put in any pocket, and gets you your banking apps.
