Hi Samsung Community,

I’m using a Samsung device with One UI 8 and I noticed that the option to “Lock Secure Folder automatically when leaving the app” is gone. This feature was really useful for keeping my private information safe quickly and easily.

I hope Samsung can bring this feature back in a future update. It would make the Secure Folder much more convenient and secure.

Thanks for listening!

There is a setting in the secure folder where it locks after your screen is turned off.

Hello,

 

After updating my Galaxy S24 Ultra in France to One UI 8, I noticed that the “Lock Secure Folder when leaving app” option has been removed. This feature was very important for me and many other users because it ensured maximum security: every time we left the Secure Folder, it would lock immediately, without waiting for the screen to turn off or for a timer.

 

Now, the only options available are locking when the screen turns off or after a delay. This is less secure, since it leaves the Secure Folder unlocked if we forget to manually lock it or if the screen stays on.

 

I kindly ask Samsung to restore the “Lock when leaving app” option in Secure Folder. It was a simple but very effective setting that provided peace of mind for users who need strong privacy protection.

 

Thank you for considering this request.

 

Best regards,
