Secure Folder Locked notification

[jordan13]

I turn off my phone every night. Every morning when I turn it back on there's a "Secure Folder Locked" notification that I can't dismiss until I unlock my secure folder.

PLEASE let us disable this notification!

Don't know, but I just activated the Secure Folder on my S20 Ultra, Rebooted & No Notification, or request to enter the password for the Secure Folder. 🤷

It's strange...
but if you don't have the notification, great 😀

Have you tried Uninstalling the Secure Folder & Reinstalling it?

I hadn't installed it until just now, to see if I got the same Notification on Boot, but I didn't.

So maybe Uninstall / Reinstall will fix the issue?

Just tried, but it didn't work 🥲

It shouldn't make a difference, but I was using a Pattern & Biometrics for the Secure Folder, not a PIN.

It doesn't work too..
since I had nothing to do for the last few minutes, I searched the US Samsung Members site, and found this
(note that they also receive some "we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience", but with a real answer after that)

From what I've found so far, this notification was introduced during an app update or with the September security patch. It seems that it's not possible to disable it.
Tomorrow I'll check in the United States Samsung Members website to see if I can find more informations

If you uninstall secure folder and then recreate secure folder the notification goes away. Sorry spoke to fast it's back
