Magisk v22.0 adds support for Galaxy S21 series, app hiding improvements, plus more

For those still happy to root and tinker on their Android devices, Magisk is an essential. The latest Magisk v22.0 build is now available, and it adds support for the recently released Galaxy S21 series alongside a few extra tweaks.

The full Magisk v22.0 changelog includes more than just new Galaxy device compatibility though. It also includes enhancements to how apps are hidden while several bugs have been squashed with this stable update. You can check out the full changelog below:
