Thank you, and welcome as a new member.

I'm not personally familiar with Samsung devices, but I believe that it is a pre-installed app used for innocent purposes. This is what I found on XDA Forums, whose members are knowledgeable:

Also, see this: https://forums.androidcentral.com/general-help-how/580873-how-do-i-remove-mobile-tracker.html

Is it in Settings, Security, Device Administrators, and ticked as an administrator?

I think it a prob for android to find ur phone via Google through synced gmail account or something when it's lost.hopefully.
