A flaw in Samsung’s Secure Folder lets anyone see what apps and photos you have

Sponsorship Offer

• A flaw has been discovered in Samsung’s Secure Folder feature, which allows anyone to view the apps and photos stored in it.
• This is possible because Samsung’s Secure Folder is set up like a Work profile.
• Subsequently, the Android Settings and Permission Controller apps treat it like one and let you see what apps and photos are in the Secure Folder, even when it’s locked.

If you own a Samsung device and want to keep some files, images, videos, or apps hidden from other people, then you’ll want to use Samsung’s Secure Folder feature. The feature creates a new profile with its own storage space and screen lock, keeping your sensitive apps and files private. Or so we thought until a flaw was discovered in Samsung’s Secure Folder that lets anyone see which apps and photos you have.
