I don't know when it happened, but I definitely know that I bought S24 ultra without TTS voice languages. A few months ago, without my knowledge and permission, Hindu, Russian, Polish, Mexican Spanish, Vietnamese and Thai TTS voice languages ​​were installed on my ultra. And now they are in the system and I can neither disable nor uninstall them. That's the behavior of malicious programs, these languages are completely unnecessary and useless, why is Samsung forcing this nonsense, it should have been an option, not a coercion. 

When I want to report unwanted language, Google warns me that the website apps-support-samsung.com is suspicious and that it is not sure that it is from Samsung. Google says that the reasons for suspicion can be the following - the page is private, or it is new, or it is rarely used visits.

Hi.

I believe it's to support their live translation feature.

Maybe those are the most popular or commonly used.

As to why you can't uninstall I'm clueless atm

I can't disable them, I can only uninstall the update, but then it says in the Galaxy Store that 6 applications have an update 😤

Under settings > search for language pack you can select and delete them. Not sure if it uninstalls though.

@Sonora: I'm sorry to hear that you feel this way. The addition of these languages was to improve the available built-in options for the Samsung text-to-speech engine. This is an accessibility feature (part of the TalkBack settings) and is not intended to be intrusive in any way.

If you open samsung store and search for tts it seems to give option to uninstall

Agian. Not sure if it's the inbuilt one or the ones you have downloaded.
