Are banking and UPI apps working in secure folder

[KunteAmith]

Last year when oneUI 6 was released samsung revoked access of SMS and CALL services in secure folder which led to UPi and banking apps not able to authenticate registered mobile no. Hence those apps not working in secure folder. 

I have not updated my S22ultra from OneUI 5.1 because of that issue. Can anyone check and confirm if samsung has fixed the issue now.

Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem with my S24 Ultra. I sent many emails to Samsung but only one reply. Install Banking and UPI Payment Apps outside the Secure Folder!

Yeah. They created a unnecessary problem. Then instead if solving it, they give excuses like
1. It was a design choice.
2. Install it outside secure folder.
3. It was done for security reason. ( if secure folder is not secure for banking and UPI apps then what is the use of secure folder )

You are absolutely right. If the "Secure Folder" is not secure then what is the use of KNOX Security? Whenever Samsung launches a new phone, it creates some defect in the old phone through software so that the sales of the new model increase. Like after removing the security of "Secure Folder" from S24, I removed Bluetooth from the S-Pen of S25 Ultra.
Downgrading old phones to sell new phones is a well thought out strategy of Samsung.

Not only that when a new phone is getting released you old phone camera quality will start to get bad compared to new phones.
I got to know thus when I compared picture when phone was launched to ones taken now

You are right 👍
Check my detailed post on this topic. I have sent many emails to Samsung on this subject but Samsung has no answer. Samsung removes any important feature as per its wish. Please check my post on "Secure Folder".

Samsung should work seriously on the security of UPI Payment Apps in "Secure Folder".
