Does Not Do Anything Beneficial Samsung = Exploitive, just another predator with their over the top bs. Nothing updated since 2020, but says its up to date. Regardless, then why am i constantly having to deactivate 2 to 3 Device Admins at a time, even though i have never activated them. I cannot remove permissions that I don't want, can't disable or uninstall apps that i don't want. EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THEIR TERMS AND CONDITIONS! I wont ever buy Samsung again having read it. They Sold Us Out.

Zero stars is more like it. If an app auto updates when you have auto updates off then it's harmful to any device. And what's sad is it keeps trying to update, I try to cancel it but it makes the whole play store freeze up. It's also keeping me from updating my other apps.

My account has been taken over I will be calling you there later on that somebody has made my life hell by putting transferring data apps on my on which are all Samsung made. I can't get an app that has 20 different things on it off of my stuff and people are able to remotely control my phone labeling items as work and even downloaded a contact list sinking it with my iPhone and the focus so I have been missing phone calls. My life has been hell for 3 months
