Secondly, surely the Galaxy Store should leave those apps alone since the Google Play Store will eventually update them?</P> <P>There appears to be no way to stop Galaxy Store from deciding whether to include or exclude these apps from Galaxy Store auto update.</P> <P>I have an app called All4 for example, which fell into this scenario. The only way I could stop Galaxy Store from stepping in was to uninstall the app, then re-install it from the Play Store. The Galaxy Store would then keep away from it for a week or a month, but eventually it would try again. Now the Galaxy Store is offering updates for the Samsung Members app, Zoom, NordVPN and Teamviewer, which it had never tried before.</P> <P>Is Samsung hoping I'll uninstall these apps and get them from the Galaxy Store instead? If so, please stop as it's very annoying.</P> <P>Does anyone know how to resolve this?</P> <DIV class="ms-editor-squiggler" style="color: initial; font: initial; font-feature-settings: initial; font-kerning: initial;
