Is there a way to remove AI before 2026?

I want to discuss AI. Is there a way to remove AI before 2026 so that I won't have to pay for it?

If you update to the latest software update, you can downgrade the software, you should be able to remove AI.

How exactly do I downgrade the software?

[Raaj77]

Not sure, but i did a software update this morning, and says there - you can downgrade to the previous uodate. If your not sure call Samsung. Cheers.

Okay thanks 😊

You can't remove or downgrade to the pervious version before. The only thing some people may try is to flash the firmware but that is very, very risky to do so and is not recommended.

Oh, okay. Thank you for asking the question.😊

You cannot revert back to the old software version once your phone has been updated. 

@Domi1998 As our company launched the Galaxy S24 series, the first AI phone combining on-device AI and cloud AI capabilities, we have been able to provide a more innovative mobile user experience.

The contents related to the paid policy of the Galaxy AI functions, which are currently being raised by some media and communities after 2025, are not true.

In order to satisfy the users of Galaxy phones, we plan to ensure that basic Galaxy AI functions can be fully used for a certain period of time, and there is no determined policy for charging with AI functions.

So why did it say that on phone update?

[LukeB2]

I am not sure what you have read, however, it is explained at the top of the update that you cannot downgrade once you have updated the phone.
