How do i replace the Kinguser app with Super Su?
Apparently, replacing the Kinguser app Super Su was impossible in the previous version. Fortunately,users can now replace it with Super Su and also get rid of the apps that might have been installed during the rooting process. To do this, follow the instructions below;

• Download and install SuperSu-Me from here
• Once the application is installed, launch it.
• When launched, it'll request for Root permission, click on 'Allow' to continue
• Once SuperSu-Me is fully launched, you'll see a large blue circle with an Android robot just like the one in Kingroot
• Now, tap on the Android circle to begin the replacing process (This may take up to 30-50 seconds)
• Once the process is completed, SuperSu will  launch automatically

You'll then notice that Kinguser and every other apps that were installed on your device by Kingroot are no longer in your app drawer, and SuperSu installed.
You can then go ahead to verify that SuperSu is working perfectly by installing any Root checker app.

How do i unroot my device? 

• Firstly, uninstall Kingroot and every other apps associated with Kingroot except Kinguser
• Now, launch Kinguser
• In Kinguser, open the settings menu by tapping the settings icon at the top right corner of the screen
• In the settings menu, tap on the Root authorization
• In Root authorization menu, tap on remove root permission
• Now, tap on 'clear' in the pop up that comes up to begin the unrooting process

Within a minute your device would be totally unrooted and Kinguser would be automatically uninstalled. In some cases after unrooting, Kinguser won't be automatically unistalled, in such cases rebooting your device should fix everything.
After rebooting your device, you can then go ahead and uninstall Kinguser like any other app, then reboot again to completely finish the process.
