Root and Apps Granted/Denied Root?

I have had my U22 for some time and I have the root switch on and several rooted apps installed and working.

I wanted to add the AFWall+ firewall which requires root. But once installed and opened I do not see any request to grant root and the app simply doesn't work and messes up all networking until the app is uninstalled the the unit rebooted. I am wondering if the app is getting the root access it needs. I am sure that at some time I knew where to look to see which apps had been granted/denied root. But for the life of me I cannot find it now.

Any tips are appreciated. Thanks
 
Yes, previously I used to use SuperSU, and you could fire up the app to see the list of apps with granted root access.
With the built in root switch, I didn't manage to figure it out either.
Subsequently, I had some issues with my U22 so wanted to upgrade to FW008, and to do that, I had to revert my box to an FW006 without root, otherwise FOTA wouldn't find the update. As far as I know, there is no FW008 with root switch. So now I don't have root anymore, so am unable to help. Sorry!
 
Thanks for the response. I too used to use SuperSU and have Magisk on some devices now. But not on the U22. Both of the others made this simple. I could not live without root. So I am on Build 20200612-V004 and thankfully it does mostly what I need/want.
