After the August update, when I reboot my phone, it shows a persistent notification "Secure Folder locked" under Android system section...the only way to make it go is to unlock my secure folder.

I don't want to uninstall Secure Folder, just looking for an one time solution to get rid of that pesky notification. TIA

Hey.... its just a fact of life. You will have to do this until samsung decide you don't!

 It's like the galaxy watch (LTE) icon that tells you that you are not near the phone! an annoying little icon at the top that obscures the watchface. Despite the fact that you choose to leave the phone because you have an LTE watch. You are stuck with this stupid icon that has no off option!!!! Samsung usually do ok with device setup but these are 2 of only a few really stupid functions that really suck!!!

No, that does not help. When I go to App Notifcations, there is "more" and "advanced settings" ... neither give the option to turn off all apps.  I have tried this. I'm not in anyway ignorant of how this SHOULD work. It just doesn't.

I did this a couple days ago, out of desperation, and that seems to have worked, but I also haven't rebooted since doing so.

stop posting that *****, as many already said, after a reboot the notification about the secure folder pops up.

Any updates on this? If only we could just uncheck this box it would all go away. Very annoying. Defeats the purpose of having a secured folder.

Oh yeah, tons of updates...it's a secret and we can't tell you, but do keep asking. 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️ I'm unsubscribing from this thread now. Sick of the unhelpful replies and other ***** that just results in more notifications I don't want. If Samsung is aware of or working on it, they sure as hell aren't gonna tell us here. 🤷🏻‍♂️
