I used custom roms for many years, but I now use my phone to pay almost everything, and I need my banking apps. magisk hide is unreliable do I won't be rooting my phone again I think
Same. Those features are more important than anything I get by rooting.
Honestly I don't even need root for anything. Adblock runs through a fake VPN app. My Pixel used to have a green screen tint, but Google fixed that at the OS level, so I don't need to have an app for that any more.
Those of us who actually use VPN don't have that option since only one can be in use. Magisk + AdAway, for me.
Care to share the name of the spoofed app?
There's also NetGuard and rethink that spoof VPN connections to filter traffic. I use the latter to block all outgoing apps except for the ones I allow.

Looks like it hasn't been updated in a while, but it still works.
Thanks!
I think people that take that approach to life are partly ruining it for us all. You're selling your privacy for convinience and in the process legitimising the removal of (what I consider) more ethical and reasonable solutions.
No, phone payments can be much more private than a card payment.
Edit: who tf is downvoting this objectively true statement?
yes this, phone payments mask your card id in the POS. it's way more secure
Perhaps, but I advocate against using both card and phone payment. Cash is the only truly private pay method, barring facial scanning cameras at the counter. Each to their own.
