I'm using the Galaxy S24 plus and I am really surprised that oneUI 7 still doesn't offer a native apple future, perhaps like Google messages gallery, WhatsApp, etc, without having to duplicate them in Secure Folder, even mid rate phones from other brands let users lock individual apps at the fingerprint. Or pin Directly - no application or extra setup needed.

Secure Folder is useful, but is not ideal for daily use Because it duplicates apps, which causes confusion and extra storage use. Some apps, (especially system ones) can't even be duplicated. It's too slow for quick access to locked apps. Please consider adding a native app lock feature to one UI (without requiring Secure Folder) that allows users to lock any app with fingerprint, pin or password. This is basic privacy feature that many users expect, especially on a flagship device.Thank you

Samsung should include this feature but, in my opinion
Secure folder is very useful feature secure folder has extra and extra Knox security and it is a valuable feature for every supported Samsung device.😊
