    I've no issues with it on my rooted phone, even during the times when safetynet fails.

      There are no alternative clients for WhatsApp as far as I know.

      The only thing worth looking into are Matrix Bridges (or something with a similar name) but it's a paid solution.

          I too used grapheneos for a long time, but WhatsApp just give me a message about WhatsApp being unofficial, and I downloaded it form Google Play, Aurora and official web site on different installations. I tried to start it from backup, but the problem persisted.

            I'll look to it. It may be a valid option. Thank you very much

              On my rooted LineageOS ROM it works just fine, just gives a warning when starting it for the first time that I am using a "rooted device" and how my "security might be compromised" but it lets you continue and doesn't show it ever again.

                Could it be an issue that I am from Poland and not us? My friend had the same issue, but on all forums the problem is non existent

                  Beeper is basically that but without the hassle of configuring the bridges by yourself

                      You can use "Hide my apps" from LSPosed, and the Magisk "DenyList" to prevent (most) apps from detecting root.
