difference between Knox and Secure Folder?

[abbatman]

Any one know what the difference between My Knox and Secure folder is?

And how to uninstall either?

You can't uninstall Knox its a Samsung app for the phone

[abbatman]

You actually can, i just did it

Hey @abbatman, you can uninstall "My Knox" which is installed from Google Play but KNOX services are a part of the system firmware on your device. Secure folder is essentially a newer version of "My Knox".

Do I have to remove all the apps My Knox before uninstalling it?

Also, got the notice that Knox is being done away with and being replaced by Secure Folder - will this be done automatically by an update from Samsung?
