 The galaxy store doesnt describes app permissions to users. The Android store describes app features why doesn't the galaxy store ?

Where can I find preinstalled Samsung app? I do not see apps like camera or my files on the galaxy store?

Settings > Apps > Click to Show > Toggle to show system apps. ie: My Files etc & you can view the permissions for them.

The question asks how the permissions used for a specific app. Google play store Cleary identifies how permissions are used.

I also asked where in the galaxy store are the preinstalled apps which I take it are not in the galaxy store only on the user's phone.

You've been shown how to see the preinstalled ie: system apps & how to view their permissions.

As for the Galaxy Store, Samsung does a poor job of providing specific information & Samsung's app developers do an even worse job of updating their apps.

You're not going to get the answer you want from Samsung, it'll be "taken as valuable feedback".

If you're so concerned about security, permissions & privacy, that ship has already sailed if you've been using the Internet for any length of time.

Accept that there's things that you can't change.
