All of the banks I've used in the past utilize email or SMS for 2FA, which isn't the must secure, but doesn't require an app.
They need to switch to Webauthn. SMS-based 2FA should’ve been big 10+ years ago, not today. I don’t really understand why this old style 2FA has been just now becoming popular lately.
