Maintenance mode users and permission For Galaxy Tablets

Last Update date : 2023-02-27

Maintenance Mode is a way of creating a separate user account when you hand in your device to be repaired so it can operate core functions without being able to access any of your private information. All the user needs to do is select Maintenance Mode in the “Battery and device care” menu within “Settings” and reboot their Tablets. As soon as it’s rebooted, all their personal information including their photos, documents, and messages will be restricted.
