On my rooted LineageOS ROM it works just fine, just gives a warning when starting it for the first time that I am using a "rooted device" and how my "security might be compromised" but it lets you continue and doesn't show it ever again.

Could it be an issue that I am from Poland and not us? My friend had the same issue, but on all forums the problem is non existent

I am from EU so you are probably fine.
