I never downloaded this app, yet its on my phone and i cannot remove it. According to the app, Some of the permissions it has, is that it is able to access my contacts, read my messages, and delete my contacts. Unbelievable!!! Where did it come from? Maybe they can help pay my phone bill?

app Can't delete this app. It sucks how everytime I want to send photos through message,it has to go through link sharing. The file isn't even large either. It wouldn't even send the pictures unless i allow link sharing.. It sucks and a waste of time.

app android I neither want nor need this app but am stuck with it as it can't be uninstalled. Preinstalled apps may be great for some, but for the rest of us, they merely take up space and make us angry. Most of us know at least a dozen ways to share files, folders, and links, and don't need a dedicated app to share things. If these things were uninstallable, I'd be happy. That way, we'd all win, advanced users and noobs alike.

disable Just a quick note to users who find themselves with an app or apps that they don't want...as far as I know a little app dubbed Easy Uninstaller works great to clear things up or better yet...get your device unlocked. There are online instructions or take back to the dealer where you purchased it who will do it

My experience is that I don't like the idea behind the app and I will never use it I think it's apps like this are responsible for a large percentage of identity theft and should be illegal no apps Deborah allow you to hide your identity without a registered permit for professional use only. You are participating in criminal activity if you get this app this app supports criminal activity. I would remove it from my phone but it seems to be built in, shame on you Samsung.

0 Stars. Security patch on my Android10 doesn't want to update even though I have tried everything. The problem lie at Samsung. I have multiple bugs because of the new update and no security patch update. I have already followed all the Android processes, as well as Google's. So please don't give me advice to follow those prompts. Android adviced me to contact my manufacturer but I don't seem to get response from Samsung when I follow your 'site contact info'. Now I try it here

Pointless. I want to attach a file, not a link. Failing to see the practical merits of this app, just put an attach file element in the email app in addition to this pretty useless function.

This app states " updated" Dec 2017. It's incorrect, I have Updated this phone's apps every time it states that "IT NEEDS UPDATEING". INCLUDING 5 MINS AGO. It still states that it was updated "dec 2017". Way too many updating weekly. I'm not really happy about this app nor the Samsung phone any more. SAVING UP SOME CASH TO PURCHASE AN ANDROID OR BETTER PRODUCT.

It was installed in phone from Samsung now I cannot uninstall it. Don't want my thing's gone through which is what they do and take video and voice and photos of what you do what you say where you are at even at restroom this includes Google, your phone carriers and all the partners they have in phone. They have all information on everyone who has a phone.

Theres no YES' option to answer ADMITTING Google shared or mirrored screens, I noticed. Now, either Google has breaches OR someone has hacked my device. So frustrating. I DEFINITELY didnt download any such thing. As, Ive been hacked before, WHY would I want to share any personal bizzo?

Despite auto download being inactive for this app and it having no permission....Samsung phone still allowed it to auto upgrade on my phone. Preventing me from using my phone as the download took up the whole bandwith. I don't know what this app is for.....it's a goner....

2020-05-07T15:23:12.260Z
Actually I don't feel this app should receive any stars. Why in the world would you want a app that its last update was 2017!!! Its utterly ridiculous that anyone would want such a thing as part of their phone system. THIS NEEDS TO BE DELETED AND A INDIVIDUALS RIGHT TO DELETE IT!!! GET WITH THE PROGRAM SAMSUNG!!!!!!!

Most of the time, i would say 80%, it cannot upload the file i am trying to share. I shared 2.5Mb fileabout 11 hours ago. The link is supppsed to expire today, but has been stuck on 32%. The message when i check on it os always, "Paused. Waiting for connection." During these times i am on the Internet. I can browse sites. Read the news and post this rating. It would be a cool app if it actually work more than 20% of the time.

2020-07-06T01:16:15.782Z
This totally prevents me from sending more than one picture at a time through message plus. I got it unknowingly in an update and I don't want it. There is not a fix for it as I was on the phone with Samsung tech for almost two hours. I'm really disgusted.

It's just a way for your data to stolen upon interception. That's why it's forced & can't be controlled in any way. This is what I believe because I've been suffering with so many issues dealing with this kind of stuff for years including phones being rooted & I didn't do it. the lists go on & on. Be careful with Google too. You could have a fake user interface on your phone stealing your information & data, yet never know it unless you research it because Google will never send warnings.

this app sucks. Everytime I have apparently used it,I was not aware of have done so and I hate any app that turns my device into a ridiculous SPY PHONE. Especially when it's a women and child abusing low life that's being allowed to hack into my device via this app and likely other apps by now. Thanks alot,boost. I appreciate that as much as children enjoy be abused daily.

I did not give this app any stars because don't know what this app is I don't use it I didn't install it but there is no way for it to be uninstalled. But I accidentally hit a star and it will not take the star off so there is one star about this review but I did not give it willingly All of the permissions to it are turned off yet somehow it says how much of my storage is being used. I have a sharing app I do not need this please let me know how to uninstall your app from my phone

Good for sharing the high-res images from the Note 20 Ultra without compression or the recipient having to download the pictures to see them. Otherwise, useless.

I never wanted this app or any of the pre-installed apps by Samsung. They are all bloatware, talking up valuable internal storage for Samsung's greedy purposes. Any phone would be far more valuable if the producer actually allowed the user to use it for what we wanted.

worst app . what is with the time limits for sharing. i cant keep these clips and i can only view them one day i can't even save the clips for later viewing. this is ridiculous and a waste of download space. Developer, you need to go back to the drawing board on this one. At least provide the option to save before you re no longest able to access the videos. provide prompts or something. Not Happy with this

Ok thanks to a negative review I found the problem I had with pop up ads in EVERY app I open was caused by this app. Once I uninstalled all updates and Force Stop it, they no longer pop up. This is a stupid app. So if you like pop up ads, go ahead and continue updating it and don't Force Stop this app. Doesn't even deserve 1 star. 0 stars from me!

I will never own another Samsung and this app is a good example of why. When you sell a phone to someone they should be able to uninstall anything that invades their privacy, exposes their info and/or they dont need. Shame on you Samsung!!

A horrendous app that will eat your entire data in a few minutes. Sent a 200 mb video it used up 5gb data in a few minutes it's done this a few times. Do not use this app. There's no way to complain and your files seem not to be private as it can be viewed by there customer service if you can ever get through to them with no way to refund you a penny. Avoid like the plague.

2018-12-13T08:54:56.795Z
Every time I try to click on a share option, all the icons move so 9/10 times this app is way more annoying than helpful. I think if it had the option to show/hide or somehow sort, not just randomly move all the messaging apps around however it feels like it would be a much better app. Pls I can't unsintall!

can't open, know what it's for, didn't install, can't uninstall or stop, yeah it's one of many that I didn't ask for, have everything turned off and still it just keeps on going, thanks for allowing link sharing to link someone else to my phone. oh by the way, I'm moving to an iPhone.

Honnestly impressed by the ease of use of the app. No need to send my files to google drive or onedrive or email just to share. Hit share , by contact sms or create a link and send throught another app. Easy, effeortless, fast ... Send and forget which is what should be default for every phones. Awesome.

I'm tired of my old lady using this and the knox plugin to control my phone. It's an misuse of personal information, data, and its very aggravating to the point I have no privacy. You guys need to fix this problem quick. Right along with android beam. And mirror link. With them aps she hates total control over my phone

Useful for sharing large files quickly without compressing. Saves me going through steps to upload to Google drive or Dropbox, copy & then send link, especially when my cloud drives tend to be maxed out, forcing me to make room. Without Samsung's easy link sharing I would not bother. Don't know why other users are fixated on this as bloatware; it's useful and unobtrusive, just one more option on the share file list. My only quibble is that sometimes the links show as expired by the receiver, even though they are still valid from my view. Haven't tracked down what the problem might be on that.

So bad I will be purchasing a new one ..My business is my business and not for Samsung or any other person that doesn't have a life to put all my information in jeopardy....MAKE IT SO WE CAN DELETE THE APP. PLEASE

No stars!! Unable to uninstall. CLAIMS I used it 6 days ago but the weird thing is I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I NEED IT, LET ALONE DOWNLOADED IT!! This is getting ridiculous. My settings keep changing, I have apps I did NOT download, and my phone keeps stating "devices" on all Google settings as if i own more than one phone?!? Don't attempt to call google or samsung either- he was so rude I would rather take my chances with an iphone. This is the LAST Samsung I will own!!😡

I paid for my phone so I should have the ability to DELETE/REMOVE whatever apps that I DO NOT WANT. Samsung I am tired of all your bloatware. Your JUNK apps uses more space than apps that I actually use. BLOATWARE. JUNK APPS. YOU KEEP TRYING TO ACCESS EVERYONE'S PERSONAL DATA WITH ALL YOUR BACKGROUND DATA PERMISSIONS.

My phone, ( note9), has been hacked including my secure folder, Google accounts and I am still working on the rest. Apps from this location keeps asking for more and more permissions as time goes by. Then I get locked out of permisions to make changes. I cannot even delete these apps I do not want or use. Just sayin! Could be the updates. BEWARE!

The 4.1 cannot be legitimate. Just read the l-o-o-o-o-n-g string below my comment. Someone below offered a solution. I think I'll call my developer friend so I don't destiny my phone!😜 -- No insult, just technologically impaired! 😛 Oh, and does anyone else find it throughly insulting that all the clever questions offered only: NO. NOT SURE. CLEAR. 😡🤬🤥🤑

What I hate about this app is that it's very slow when you hit " share option" it takes forever just to open. I have a galaxy s7 and it's very slow. I don't want this app because it's like all of Samsung applications are slow.. you will get a 1 star from me for now

The app has trouble after you send link. It stays on, says waiting for connection 99%. Now I searched for answers cause it eats up my data. I spent an hour. I tried different ways. Finally solution Search for link sharing in settings>click on it, opens window for app> click on storage>clean data & cache, than > force stop This helps that annoying stand be searching data & battery drainer. Good luck everyone

The device does not have sufficient onboard storage capacity to have the app working with ur device especially after the updates. Too many additional apps cannot be moved to the external storage as most other devices are able to. Permanently struggling with very low on board memory after just a few of the standard updates for the onboard apps. And many of the devices own apps cannot be disabled completely or uninstalled if not used.

I give it a zero Stars frankly because I never installed it but it got installed says I use it uses a lot of data I'm not entirely convinced that I'm not completely hacked. It seems that I have a bunch of software that is constantly monitoring everything I do and then uploading it somewhere I'm starting to wonder whether Samsung is hacking all our phones are they about to go to war with us China?

More effin bloatware! And it can't be uninstalled! Apparently I haven't used this in over a year, so why can't I get rid of it? Like, when I get a popup saying get rid of apps you don't use so your phone works more efficiently, this would be one of those apps. And yet, I'm stuck with it clogging up my internal drive. Useless!
Alan L
2020-06-28T16:34:08.417Z
Unwanted Bloatware. Yet another zero star if the option was there. And yes, I know what it does but if I wanted the facility I'd download it.

Link Sharing no longer allows generating codes or code downloads. There is no loss in file size upon transfers. The Link Sharing companion app on Windows works much better. There is code support as well. I use Your Phone on Windows to seamlessly transfer files. Please bring back code support Samsung. Thank you.

0 STARS! Forcefully installed on MY phone without MY permission & can't be uninstalled, uses data & storage, closes apps while in use, drops internet & wifi, slows phone down, changes settings, deletes files, drains battery. Receive unwanted- offensive-sexual-inappropriate ads/videos/pop ups & happened while my underage children were playing a game. I contacted my attorney & started taking screenshots as well as videos with another device for evidence to pursue legal action. MY phone, MY consent!

Please STOP sneaking apps into people's devices. No permission was given and no notification. These apps are useless to the average user and run in the background causing slowness and data usage. This kind of activity is getting out of hand. It also replicates other apps that may be already in use on the device. Whenever apps like this are made difficult to remove, it becomes very suspicious of its intended usage.
AC Melka
2019-01-13T18:51:27.758Z
i thought this app was perfect and it must be because its not needed any update in years. thank god Samsung is so invested in making sure security for users on older phones is as good as it was years ago. the religious way Samsung freezes updates on depeicated stuff so we get to use bloat ware 100% as good as 3-4 years ago. 100% the same. show offy apple take that. good hackers cant read about unpatched vulnerabilities online or....wait.....

Do you know how many problems this is caused in my relationship due to the fact that I'm constantly accusing my husband of downloading Spy Apps whether he is or he is not there's way too many apps that are installed on my phone that can't be disabled or uninstalled due to Samsung I do believe it's time for a class action lawsuit myself if you or anybody that's read this post there's quite a few of you that I've read that agree. Samsung it's time for you to do with the consumer wants!!!!!

i got to year 5 almost at the end and it.s says no more challenges check again later... that was 3 days ago... i really doubt that i finished the game and you did not make more challenges, at least so we can finish year 5... also it crushes randomly, and sometimes does not save the progress and makes me loose challenges i actualy won.

I don't want this app nor do I need it. Can't uninstall it thanks to Samsung and Google. which they are just about useless as can be. I don't want to share any of my stuff I have on my phone with any body person or company and if I did that should be my choice to do so not Google or Samsung. What's up with having a babysitter on my phone watching my every move? I mean REALLY!!! I'm not someone who needs to be watched or told on. To much for me might just get rid of all this technology.
Jason Stevens
2019-12-07T20:50:44.342Z
I don't understand why developers want to make it where you can't delete an Ap? If it's so great then you won't need to force it on someone! Most of the time it is useless and it usually slows down the phone and drains the battery! Oh yeah and let's not forget violation of your privacy!!
Fanchon Carey-Smalls

I never wanted this app and would like it to be deleted off my phone. I dont want this and would like to delete it. If I dont get a response, i will be buying an apple phone and bye bye to Samsung. Emailed the Creators twice. Haven't received a response yet.
Mahesh Naik
2018-09-21T05:05:49.419Z
This is Samsung's forced installed app, did not request for this app and there is no shortcut to use. Even if you search for the name it does not appear in the list of installed applications. You cannot uninstall completely or disable. Something fishi about this APP, Google should blacklist this app which they will not do.
Poppa York
2019-11-02T19:23:18.995Z
Not happy with this version. The old app (Flir Secure) was more user friendly on my Samsung. Now, if the video loads. It's way slower. Sometimes it times put before the video loads. Definitely not happy.

After this phone, I'll never by another Samsung phone again. The volume suck and S's sound like fingernails down a chalkboard. What's really annoying are all the Samsung apps that you turn off keep turning themselves back on. I don't want Bixby, I don't want to your crappy voicemail service, and I have no use for your stupid cloud, I use Google. Also what's up with everything being gray with a little darker gray font that you can barely read on the gray background?

Per this statement above program is doing as stated. Now please figure solution for when I'm trying to switch between different app's using the ||| button next to the home button. Most often prevents closure when trying to close any app. Typically occurs as described: 1]I open text app 2]Click retailers link which opens Chrome switching me to retailers app [if on device]. 3]After pressing ||| again device MAY FINALLY show all apps open. 4]Select app to close yet nothing occurs for 4-6 min later.

This app was put on my phone WITHOUT my consent. I don't need it, I don't want it and i CANNOT remove it. It is not the only app that Samsung has forcibly installed on my phone and which then proceeds to interfere with my personally downloaded apps. As the problem appears to be Samsung's own disregard for customer privacy, this is my last Samsung phone. Mary, BA (Ord.) Law How do i delete this app?

This app was installed on my new Samsung S10E. Listing here states last update was quite some time ago. Actually app was just updated 09/08/2019. I like this app very much. Operates just fine and is robust. Integrated with other apps very well. Again congrats to the developers efforts on this excellent utulity!!!!!

It was working perfectly until you decided that contact details are essential. Why can't we just share links like we used to? This app is called "Link Sharing" for a reason, right?
Mike Cooper
2019-05-29T03:03:21.768Z
Here's another Bloat App that for most of us will never use . Something that makes me angry is these kind of Apps run in "Stealth Mode" without permission from us weather we want them to or not . Question really is why are you sharing my information to your Partners without my Knowledge or permission ?
Victoria Patricia
2020-08-29T20:24:49.153Z
I am a private person. I do not trust anyone due to a bad situation encountered using "sharing;" therefore, I prefer that I could completely wipe this seemly app from my device altogether.
A Google user
2018-11-28T13:10:25.367Z
While so prominently displayed atop the share sheet, I had completely missed this function. I really think it is very well done and an absolute live saver when you need to send larger files. It is so easy to use. Everybody should give it a try.

If you want anyone else with this app to see and control everything you do this ones for you. POS that isn't good you cant monitor anything and this app will download others, and on top of that access to camera and mic without a warning.

scott miller
2020-01-10T01:20:40.874Z
I dont send large files or any files. Besides my friends dont use windows. So I have no use for it. Just turn off auto update so when the app grows over time it stays the same size. This is my method.

WELL, I was about to join the chorus of one STAR reviewers.. HOWEVER, After reading your reviews where some were full of praise and others ( like me ) were not so happy.... SO...After thinking about it, I went to Play Store and uninstalled the update. IT IMMEDIATELY REVERTED TO a form of SIMPLE SHARE which we liked..😄😃😀 " DON'T update if this is what you wanted " Might I suggest the developers offer a separate (all encompassing ) pro version. Thanks team.😀😄🌱

What links sharing and with who, Samsung has installed this app by force and that's why I can't delete it and Samsung has installed more apps which I don't use or need it on my device, all Samsung phones are coming with buy one and get one free, so you buy the phone and Samsung gives a free built in deval which takes full control of your phone in few months and Samsung will never help you out because they got the money already.

Like 85% of your reviews this app is a stupid waste of space The only review that might be helpful is the one that said I could get rid of it if I'm willing to root my phone. There is no way this app is 4.2 stars with all the 1 star reviews you must be doing some new kind of math!

Seriously.... What is wrong with all of the ignorant and useless comments here? If you are going to review and app, review the app.... Not complain about how you can't Uninstall it. This app works well for the purpose it serves, easily sharing large files without having to sign up for a service. As far as people blindly complaining about the app being pre-installed.... Who cares! It takes up hardly any space on my note 9, doesn't impact performance in any way, and offers a feature not found on other devices. I don't think people should complain about useful apps being pre-installed. If you don't use it... Fine. But at least Samsung offers useful and helpful features on their devices, where as companies like Google with their pixel line are becoming more like Apple with fewer and fewer built in features. Seriously people... Stop complaining about the app being pre-installed.....

Instead of doing things rite they've gone ALL BAD! GREEDY FOR OUR PERSONAL DATA and I've been hacked so bad in not a le to find out

love the expiry feature of the app. would love it even more if the daily upload size was more. like if it was linked to samsung cloud to provide that space or something like that.
