You can now Pass Play Integrity and Run Any Banking Apps on your rooted device with the help of a KernelSU module. If you rooted your Android device, you may know that you can’t use the payment apps like Google Pay or banking apps like ICICI or the SBI Yono app. Likely, the apps will auto-close or show you an insecure or rooted device. In this post, we will guide you on how to pass Play Integrity on KernelSU. Additionally, we will explain how to run Payment or banking apps.

In recent security patches, the Integrity is stronger than new payment and banking apps. These apps do not work even when hiding the apps from root. Your device needs a strong Integrity Test Pass to work the apps. In this post, we will show all the methods and guides to pass the “Meets Basic Integrity“, “Meets Device Integrity” and “Meets Strong Integrity” checks. We will use ZygiskNext, Integrity-Box, Tricky Store, and Hide MY AppList App. Moreover, we will guide you to set up all the modules.

What is Play Integrity API?

Play Integrity is an important security feature developed by Google. It helps protect Android devices and applications from threats such as fraud, unauthorised modifications and malicious activities. In addition, Play Integrity protects the device and applications with a safeguard that lets the user know that the Android system and applications are in a trusted environment. Using the Play Integrity API, the system checks the device for factors such as authenticity. It also checks the application for integrity.

This way, the developers have more useful information and help the user by protecting them from such risks as a Trojan horse or malicious installations of important applications. Additionally, it protects against execution of banking applications on compromised/ hacked devices. To the consumer, what this means is that now it would be even safer to use banking applications, as extra security is facilitated. Consequently, the applications will run in a more solid computing environment. Finally, there is peace of mind when using any other service that is important, such as payments, etc.
