I've got a samsung galaxy S8 that keeps pestering me about an update to the samsungs kids installer. I don't even have samsung kids on my phone - its nowhere. and I don't wish to install it. I'm an adult and I don't need parental guidance. how do i stop this annoying popup?

I appreciate your nkt wanting or needing this update @neuronetv1 

You could either just let the update complete which should stop the pop up.

Or after a Google Search I've found this piece of advice which may help.

  • You can wait for its notification to appear

  • when that happens, swipe right to reveal the settings cog

  • In the settings, there's an option to either turn off notifications, uninstall, or open the app in the Galaxy Store

  • In the galaxy store, click 3 dots at the upper right corner

  • Uncheck "Auto Update".

  • Alternatively, instead of waiting for the notification to appear again, look for that app in the Galaxy Store, click the 3 dots, and uncheck "Auto update".

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.
I'm here to help. " This is the way. "
