Safeguard your passwords with Samsung Pass
There’s only one you, and our devices know that. With innovative biometric authentication technology like Face Recognition and Ultrasonic Fingerprint, your data is protected even if your device is lost or stolen.
With Samsung Pass, your individual features allow you to easily, quickly and securely access important data like bank and email apps.
*Biometric authentication feature availability may vary by device.
*The available functions, features, and compatible applications for Samsung Pass may vary by country due to differing regulatory and legal environments.
*Web log-in is only available in the Samsung Internet app.
Secure your connections
Secure Wi-Fi encrypts outgoing internet traffic and disables tracking apps and websites when using public wireless connections, allowing you to browse the internet safely without fear of security breaches.
*Secure Wi-Fi feature availability may vary depending on country, carrier, or network environment and may not be supported on all Samsung mobile devices. Fees may apply depending on Secure Wi-Fi usage.
Keep track of your smartphone
You try your best to care for your smartphone, but accidents happen. In case of loss or theft, our Find My Mobile remotely locates your smartphone, backs up data stored on the device to Samsung Cloud, locks the screen and blocks access to Samsung Pay. And if the worst happens, it can even delete locally-stored data from your device.
*Availability of the Find My Mobile service may vary by device and/or OS.
*To use the Find My Mobile service:
1) You must have set up your Samsung account on your device.
2) You allow Google to collect your location information and agree to the Use wireless networks terms and conditions.
Keep personal data personal with Secure Folder
Today's mobile phones are multi-purpose tools: part wallet, part phonebook, part photo album, part personal computer. For an extra layer of privacy, Secure Folder creates a separate encrypted space to store all that data, meaning only you have access to the most private parts of your phone.
*Availability of Secure Folder may vary by device.
