No apps that I install to Secure Folder are working because Google play store pops up requesting a sign in, anyone else finding this? Defeated purpose if I need to login to Google in my secure folder.

Hello, no as long as outside your Secure Folder the app is installed you can then just pick it, but yes if it doesn't show you end up in the GSTORE, I gave up and just use the same samsung account.

I cannot use any newly installed apps any more in the Secure Folder because PlayStore pops up asking for login which previously didn't need when using apps in secure folder, what has changed and is there a workaround?
