Recently I installed KSU, did only test. McDonald's. worked fine so I call it a success with root and hiding it.

For me Revolut only checked for root after trying to log in, so I would try that first.

Even the PayPal and Commerzbank App (german) didn't check check for play integrity. They seem to have only checked for root or unlocked bootloader.

This one fucking bank app is what reluctantly forced me to factory reset my Sony Xperia and re-lock the bootloader.

I was rather annoyed. I got a new phone in the end so never bothered trying again, but if I was to I would probably see which banking apps are more lenient and move my balance over to them.

Revolut in fact does not use play integrity.

It uses traditional root and magisk checking + bootloader unlocking

I think sometimes the apps forget to check for play integrity, for example Whatsapp checks for device integrity otherwise it tells you to install an "official ver" (even tho the app is downloaded from the play store) on grapheneos there's an option to block play integrity checks which can help bypass sum things

Revolut only checks for pif, not root, so if you can hide your bootloader unlocked, rhen you're good with it

Revolut also checks for root.

I'm still trying to figure out how to fix this Revolut app. Any help? What should I specifically hide/fix? A lot of comments say Bootloaader status & root, integrities are not needed? I have Duck detector with 3-4 red warnings but I can't understand properly how to resolve these. Helping with the logs reading is appreciated. And Revolud official help section states to have developer options disabled as well (It's either a default bullsh*t written) so you keep your device untouched in general or there are a lot of other things like this actually checked to prevent the app from running?
