Its been several years since the horrible update that now notifies the user that Secure Folder is locked when booting up. Why do they not remove it after so many dislike it!

    I’d want it to be removed too. You can hide what it says though, long press it and go to settings and on lock screen settings change it to hide content. Doesn’t do much, but change what it is specifically showing up for, it just says “Android System” instead of Secure Folder. Makes it thinner too.

    Either way, I’d like for it to just not show up at all…

      Can you please share a screenshot or few more steps? What I did is unlocked Secure Folder after booting my phone, then long pressed on it, App info and then settings, unable to figure out the next step.

        Drop down you notifications, then long press the Secure Folder notification.

        Three options should pop up: “Turn off Notifications” (does not work, it’s grayed out) “Settings” “Done”

        Press on “Settings” and it should open the App Notification Settings for “Android System”

        You should see a few options, look for “Notification types.”

        Make sure “Lock Screen” is Allowed, you should have it on by default.

        There should be an option that says “Lock screen notifications,” it should say “Show content” by default.

        Press that and it should give you the two option: “Show content” (should be checked by default) “Hide content”

        Press “Hide content” and it should hide it everywhere, not just the lock screen.

        It’s not gonna go away, but it hides what the notification is for, it should just say “Android System” and it should be a thinner notification too.

        Hope this helps! 😁
