Some apps think phone is rooted

[JakTin]

Hello everyone! I have an odd one here. I have a galaxy s24 fe that is my main phone. I bought a Moto G Play 2024 brand new at dollar general for $40 and it's through total wireless. I bought that one for tweaking, expiramenting, testing apps and so on. I downloaded a bunch of apps for doing what I just said and I downloaded them on my s24 fe so I could get used to them by exploring them. I have ZERO intentions on doing anything illegal or warranty voiding on my s24 fe but I was wanting to root the Moto G Play which, as I understand, wouldn't be illegal because Motorola offers a bootloader unlock code for some of their phones. Now the problem is that certain apps will not open and a message will pop up saying the app can not open because my phone is rooted. I can prove, pretty easily and definitively, that this phone is not rooted because I would love to meet the person that can root a samsung phone without tripping knox or unlocking the bootloader. I can post a screenshot of my downloaded apps and some other pics that show that it is not rooted. What would cause this?

This is the message I get on certain apps

That's really weird. Sounds like something is tripping Knox. If you uninstall those apps, do you still get the message about being rooted?
