Although Samsung smartphones have Google Play, Your devices also include Galaxy StoreSamsung’s own app store, which, among other things, allows users to update some of the system’s apps. This, of course, means that its use can become quite frequent, even more so if users decide to make this official software repository one of their usual channels for installing software on their devices.
As with devices from many other brands (excluding Apple, of course, for obvious reasons), It is quite common that it is not necessary to use a user account to carry out the most common tasks. It is often recommended to the user, and in certain cases it serves to provide a more complete user experience, but since many people prefer not to give “extra” information, manufacturers have historically given in on this point, thus allowing anonymous use, that is, not linked to a user account.
It seems, however, that the Korean technology company’s policy in this regard is very close to changing. And, as we read, and 9to5Google, Samsung will make it mandatory to have a user account to update apps from the Galaxy StoreAnd, although at the moment all this is based on information not officially confirmed (although originating from the company’s own software), it seems that this change in Samsung’s policies will begin to take effect, at least in the United States, next month. September 25th.
This change may seem trivial, but it actually fits into a strategy initiated by the company some time agowith which it intends to get more users of its devices to take the step of creating a Samsung account, which is progressively being linked to more of its own products and services, although until now we had not seen another movement in this sense with the depth of the current one, and which indicates that this objective aims to become increasingly more of a priority for the Korean company.
It is also important to note that this change in Galaxy Store policy rIt will also affect apps that are already installed. and that, until now, they could be updated without having to log in to the store. And, therefore, while waiting to find out how its deployment will take place and which geographies it will reach (since it is possible that it will not be applied simultaneously globally), it is likely that many users will discover it the unpleasant way. That is, directly when they try to update the apps installed from the Samsung store.
