Samsung recommends installing apps only from the app store (google play/galaxy store) for you and your device's safety

Unless if you set your "Device Security" turned on in Samsung Device Care

For me, I install apps naman from outside app store but I made sure na i.reremove ko yung mga permissions after kong gamitin yung app. Pero, depende na rin yun sa app na i-install mo. Meron kasing iba na would do harm. Depende na rin sa user hehe.

Thank you, Rendellsibal, for your inquiry, here.

By default, your Samsung Galaxy Phone or tablet is set to prohibit apps from being installed from sources other than the Play Store and Galaxy Store. However, you can change this setting if desired. Please be aware that this can increase security risks.

With further warning, your phone and personal data are more vulnerable to attacks from unknown apps. By installing apps from other sources, you agree that you're responsible for any damage to your device or loss of data that may result from their use.
