Banking app on root

My banking app (PSECU) doesnt function on my phone even though I'm passing safety net and have magisk hide on, as well as edxposed hide. Is there a common way banking apps check for root that can be bypassed?

Edit: phone also passes RootBeerFresh

Solved: Rename TWRP Folder

Not sure if that's the case for you but an infamous bank here was using an isolated process for root checking and previous workarounds were all hacky, the solution that seems to work is using Riru Unshare so Magisk Hide can list and hide from isolated processes https://github.com/vvb2060/riru-unshare/releases

After installing this module and rebooting some apps should show extra processes on Magisk hide which can be hidden (not 100 sure as i don't use that bank). be sure to tell me if that works for you or not

Not seeing any new apps in magisk help, but I'd bet it's somewhere along these lines

You're not meant to see new apps, if you tap on apps they should show additional processes (some bank apps here at least seem to have tho)

No new processes under PSECU sadly

Have you've checked if it works without Xposed? Also, did you try hiding the manager? Some apps check for the presence of the manager and consider that as having root
