Secure Folder
Secure Folder protects your private content and apps, such as pictures and contacts, from
being accessed by others. You can keep your private content and apps secure even when the
device is unlocked.
Secure Folder is a separate, secured storage area. The data in Secure Folder cannot be
transferred to other devices via unapproved sharing methods, such as USB or Wi-Fi
Direct. Attempting to customize the operating system or modifying software will cause
Secure Folder to be automatically locked and inaccessible. Before saving data in Secure
Folder, make sure to back up a copy of the data in another secure location.
