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!

It must be back in options. Also, there should be an option to hide Secure Folder from Recent Apps tiles.

Hello Samsung Team,
I am a user of Samsung Secure Folder on One UI 8 (Android 16). I noticed that the recent update removed the option to automatically lock Secure Folder when exiting an app.
This feature was very important to me for maintaining privacy and security. Without it, I now have to lock the folder manually or rely on the time-based auto-lock, which is less practical.
I would greatly appreciate it if Samsung could restore the “Lock Secure Folder on App Exit” option in future updates, as it significantly improves security and user experience.
Thank you for your consideration.

No longer a Secure Folder. It became a normal folder. Mind boggling, what were they thinking... Surely the Samsung programmers are using the "Secure" folder and must see the problem...
