| 2023-01-31 |  | | 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. |
| 2022-04-27 |  | | 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. |
| 2022-02-19 |  | | 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 |
| 2021-12-23 |  | | I don't want it. I don't need it. I want it gone from my notifications and cannot remove it. I start to hate a company when they try to shove something down my throat. For all the years I have had this phone, Samsung has been fine for whatever functions I need and hasn't harassed me over a useless download. I guess the corporate structure at Samsung thinks they know more than I do about their policies. So here is my response: Samsung, please take your policy update to Uranus and keep it there. |
| 2021-09-21 |  | | App installed it's update automatically! But auto updates! Are always! Turned of. I uninstalled it instantly! But then severe network issues apeard! The solution! Is simple. Folow these steps: first go to your settings then go to: application manager make sure! To select! Show system applications! In the top right corner! then look for security policy updates select storage: clear it's cache and data (reconnect to all network's! Run smartmananger to clean other cached data This solved it for me |
| 2021-07-12 |  | | Planned obsolescence, that is what this app does! It will check to see how old your Samsung phone is.. if it is an old Samsung phone, it will throttle and drain the battery. We've seen what happened to the Galaxy Note 4, everybody all of a sudden had damaged phones with an emmc error. Shame on Samsung! Let people keep their old phones! Just download an antivirus app if you worry about security. |
| 2021-06-06 |  | | This is the only update that will continuously harass you about installing. That's all Samsung wants to do right is secure your device at least that's what they tell you and then they brute force update your phone regardless if you really want to update it or not. Are making Samsung phones more and more difficult to gain Superuser rights which I think is deliberate. It's like Samsung is the only company that does not want you to have complete control over your device |
| 2021-03-17 |  | | I'm giving this app 5 stars because its cleaner option is one of the few cleaners that actually cleans everything without me having to do a follow up each time and clean up caches manually. BUT, it would be REALLY nice if the app lock had an option for alphabetical order, it would make things easier and quicker |
| 2020-12-19 |  | | Showed up in my Google Play list one day. I can't uninstall it, and I don't know why. Another member of my household has a similar Android Samsung device without this Security Policy Update app, which asks to be updated manually. This doesn't appear to be a legitimate app. |
| 2020-12-07 |  | | This is very suspicious. I suspect it's Samsung trying to track us. Don't download this. The file size is optimized for it to be undetected, and that file size CANNOT be consisting of any new features, as the MB is too small. |
