It is pathetic that Samsung is showing ads on their flagship phones which cost a lot. It is surprising that Samsung is copying cheap steps of MI phones and showing ads on weather and all apps and in notifications too. I say it's Samsung duty to permanently disable these ads from scratch, why us users do "allow this disallow that" , its your duty samsung please push a OTA and finish this cheap act if yours.

It is one setting that you agreed... I think by mistake...

For turn it off
Go to settings and go to PRIVACY...

Turn of option called
Receive Marketing Information...

And it's done..
If ads are coming from Samsung store.
Go to Samsung's app store then settings and turn of receive marketing information...


That's all...
If you found this solution work, please provide it as helpful solution.

Thanks

See even after I've disabled it, it is still showing me ads..
My device is M21 and yes it's still overpriced as compared to other ads showing chinese phones..
Samsung will have to pay for this like the other chinese phones. Gradually People will definitely stop buying Samsung phones because of this kind of cheap tactis.. And btw i love one ui but not with ads..

So, there is one thing, ads are coming from either your browser notification or any other app that you installed in your device.

In galaxy there is not an any single ad in notification or pop up after completing or turning of " Show Marketing Information"

Please look next time when ad comes in your notification or screen area that by through which app it is.

Thanks

We already had a conversation regarding ads in some apps, what you can do is use my method to remove ads from your Galaxy device:
