This might be a silly question, but do you think it would be a good idea for me to first set up my old android phone with my bank and authenticator apps before I make the switch in case some of them don't work?

For authenticator, do NOT use Authy

I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

np, and also not sure if you have to use bank apps to do transfer everyday but you can try to use 2 phones. Thats what i did until i make sure the bank apps work well.

Also look up profiles in GrapheneOS too. I have a dedicates profile for Banks apps only with different password and fingerprints.

Yep sounds like a good idea to me, I like when people think ahead like that.
