Hi, is there any way to have a whatsapp work on a rooted phone (Pixel 7a) with something like frost is to Facebook?

Does it refuse to run if it detects root? Im not rooted but grapheneOS lets me run whatsapp no problem.

    I too used grapheneos for a long time, but WhatsApp just give me a message about WhatsApp being unofficial, and I downloaded it form Google Play, Aurora and official web site on different installations. I tried to start it from backup, but the problem persisted.
