Yes,  some apps (wrongfully)  thinks the UMI ROM is rooted. How they arrive at that conclusion I don't know. It could be the unlocked bootloader -  I think there's a locked version floating around the internets. XDA perhaps?

Chinese smartphones often come with an unlocked bootloader. The Super is no exception. This often causes issues with security related apps (banking apps and MDM tools are often affected), you need to flash a locked bootloader.

Check the second post of this XDA post on how to replace your unlocked bootloader with a locked one. I have not tried that myself, though.

I've had this exact issue with Microsoft Intune.
I would prefer a simpler fix. :-|
