Google Play Protect updates

[pjtwyman]

Sorry I can't find a more appropriate forum.

I have Samsung S25 and S21 FE, both with Android 16. I have not received any recent updates for Google Play Protect for some time. On the S25 the latest update is August 2025, for the S21 FE it is October 2025.

Is there any reason for this?

This article should explain it. Samsung has been doing some fine tuning. Updates will hopefully resume soon...

Thanks. I had a look at the article and will hope Samsung delivers.

You're Welcome!

I'm hoping also. My s24U is on September 2025 & my Husband's s24U is on July 2025.

If I had to choose, I'd rather the updates be late than pushed through & causing problems with OneUI 8.
(At least that's what I'm telling myself.)
