Question 1

A company launches a new mobile banking app. Customers can transfer money, view balances, and pay bills. The app is available 99.9% of the time during business hours. Which statement about the app's utility and warranty is TRUE?

Option A reverses the concepts. Option C and D incorrectly claim utility is not used.
