You can't patch Snap to not care because the safetynet process is (roughly) like that: The App asks the Play libraries whether the phone is okay. This is verified (in part) on the Google servers, so the Snap servers can ask Google whether a call came from a non-tampered phone. The client can't do anything about it, except tricking google into believing the phone is not tampered with. Which is notoriously hard, because nobody knows how the process really works.

In my experience, SafeteyNet bypass on rooted devices has been a solved problem for a long time through Magisk Hide.

Except not all Android devices have Play Services, for example is Snap available in China?
