Installing ESET Mobile Security for Android in Samsung secure folder

It is not recommended to install the ESET Mobile Security for Android app in Samsung Secure Folder. This folder is completely isolated from the rest of the device, and therefore only the contents of the secure folder will be protected, resulting in very limited functionality of ESET Mobile Security for Android.

If you do add ESET Mobile Security for Android to the Samsung Secure Folder, it will require a separate activation, consuming one seat from the subscription.
