Samsung is removing ads from its stock apps this year in an effort to improve the user experience. The company says that it will also invest in new features and services to make its apps more valuable. Samsung began testing the removal of ads from its stock apps last year, and has now decided to make the change permanent. The company says that this will improve the user experience by reducing clutter and making the apps more valuable. Samsung also plans to invest in new features and services to make its apps more valuable. Some users have criticized Samsung for removing ads from its stock apps, saying that it will reduce revenue for app developers. However, Samsung says that it will invest in new features and services to make up for any lost revenue. ..
In a statement to The Verge, a company representative said, “Samsung has made a decision to cease the advertisement on proprietary apps including Samsung Weather, Samsung Pay, and Samsung Theme. The update will be ready by later this year.”
The company decided that delivering a more enjoyable experience to its users is more valuable than making money from these ads. The Samsung representative said, “We value feedback from our users and continue our commitment to provide them with the best possible experience from our Galaxy products and services.”
Rather than doing anything shady to dodge the ads or switching to non-Samsung apps that perform the same functionality, it’ll be nice to have the phone’s built-in apps function well and look cleaner without the annoying ads taking up screen real estate.
Samsung didn’t provide an exact date for the update that would remove the ads, other than saying that it would be available this year. We’ll have to wait and see, but at least the company is moving in the right direction.
