Magisk - What is it and How to Use It

2 Magisk - What is it and How to Use It

Know Your Magisk

Magisk is a systemless root system. Basically, this means that you can change the phone system without changing the base code.

Developed by Topjohnwu and launched in 2016, Magisk has broadened its horizons every year since then. Magisk Root is particularly beneficial for running financial applications.

Rooting

Rooting basically gives you the right to access functions of your phone that would be blocked either by the operator or by the actual operator of the phone.

There are several applications that can only be accessed if your phone has root privileges. For example, you can download an advanced screen recorder.

Rooting certain apps can save you battery life (now it's a savior), make free in-app purchases, or even speed up your phone's CPU by overclocking it. In short, a gold mining app and an opportunity to enhance your phone experience.

Sample Case

Suppose you want to run a banking application. But every time you open the application, you get a message saying "Your phone is rooted and you can not use this application on your device."

If you now want to use this application, you can unroot your phone, work on this application and remodel your phone with Chainfire SuperSU.

However, rooting and unrooting device is a tedious process. You can do it once, but doing it repeatedly will definitely get boring.

Do you want to use this banking application quickly? You will not get stuck by unrooting your phone. Magisk allows you to make changes to launch the application.
