Magisk is a powerful open-source rooting solution for Android devices. It allows users to gain root access while still passing Google’s SafetyNet checks, which means apps like Google Pay, banking apps, and others that normally block rooted phones can still function.
With Magisk v28.1, both the core functionality and the Magisk Manager (which is also v28.1 in this release) receive key fixes and improvements for better compatibility and performance.
The latest release, Magisk v28.1, includes several important fixes and improvements:

Magisk v28.1 continues to prioritize compatibility and system integrity while maintaining its core value: systemless root with minimal disruption to the Android ecosystem. Whether you’re customizing your device or developing modules, this update brings stability and reliability to the table.
