Please bring back “Lock Secure Folder when leaving app” in One UI 8

[xRhea]

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!

Now even if there is theif detection lock but when we have friends around and then they can easily acess the secure folder which we do not want then to see

Secure Folder isnt a secure folder anymore, please bring the option “Lock Secure Folder automatically when leaving the app” back!

Please bring back the feature, it is very important feature, except it, secure folder is nothing

I know right . Literally made the one thing that was meant to be secure less secure. When working I tend to leave my screen on for longer but after I realised my secure folder apps were still accessible, I'm scared now to leave my phone open which is very inconvenient in doing anything ! And now the apps don't close. I close all apps but when I open the phone again, my secure folder apps have reopened themselves .

That's not the same as securing the folder when you exit the folder!

There can't be any logical reason to reducing the security for a secure folder. This was a poorly executed update and makes me wish I never did it.

Yes want that feature backk it was feeling way safe to use secure folder now it seems use less like we can just hide unhide the apps instead of using secre folder with this update

Secure folder become not secure at all without automatically lock the secure folder when app is closed or left.

Th removal of this option is regressive.  Simple logic that lock on closed is more secure than any other option.  So why did Samsung need to remove it?  And why has there been no response to this issue.  This is the problem with these software updates.  Users are not warned of loss of basic features before they accept updates.  This is not in any way an "improvement" to the app.  It is a loss of important functionality and zero comments from Samsung on if and when it will be restored.  So frustrated by samsung.
