There are 2 google play services and both taking quite a lot battery juice. Especially the one with secure folder icon on it. I don't use secure folder at all.
1. What is the secure folder google play services doing here and why is it taking a lot of battery, more than the usual google play service?
2. What can I do to:
 2.1. Delete this secure folder google play services?
2.2. Make usual google play services take less battery power?

Dear Samsung member,

Greetings from Samsung customer support.

Battery optimization helps you to boost the battery performance of your device. To check battery optimization:

Kindly turn off the smart features of the device and other connectivity features when not in use, which will eventually help you to reduce battery power consumption (smart features such as Motion gestures in advance feature and Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Hotspot, etc.).

Please follow the below steps:
1. Swipe down on the home screen to open the notification panel.
2. Tap on Bluetooth, Location/GPS, Wi-Fi, Mobile hotspot, NFC, etc. to turn off.

In case the issue still occurs. Please register your concern in Samsung Members Application (Open Samsung Members Application > Get help > Send Feedback > Error report).
