Secure folder not working Properly in galaxy M53

[SameerRaii]

In my device the secure folder now appears in recent tab it is showing this after I updated device to one ui 7 

Can anyone tell me how to turn it off so that it does not show the secure folder's apps in recent tab??

Unfortunately, in One UI 7 (including on your Galaxy M53), Samsung removed the setting that let you completely block Secure Folder apps from appearing in the Recent Apps screen .

Additional tips

Disable Automatic Data Decryption:
In the same security menu, turn off Automatic data decryption so apps inside Secure Folder don’t stay unlocked and running in the background .

Hide Secure Folder completely:

From Secure Folder Settings, toggle off Add Secure Folder to Apps screen, or

Use the Quick Settings tile (“Secure Folder”) to manually hide/unhide the folder .



Hiding doesn’t stop Recents visibility on its own, but it’s an added layer of privacy.

So now secure folder is of no use

Try the following to stabilize Secure Folder:

1. Disable auto-create stories in Gallery (see #1 above).


2. Clear cache & data of the Secure Folder app (Settings → Apps → Secure Folder), then restart .


3. Update Secure Folder through the Galaxy Store or Play Store—Samsung may have rolled out a fix .


4. Update your device OS via Settings → Software update, then restart .


5. As a last resort, reset Secure Folder (Settings → Biometrics & security → Secure Folder → Reset)—this wipes folder contents, so back up first .


6. If none of the above helps, contact Samsung support—the issue is known and they may offer a targeted update
