Android Central Question

According to other comments I am reading, I am pretty sure the software update caused the popup problem. Everyone's problem started at same time and it wasn't a problem before with no new apps added now.
Help

Welcome to Android Central! Are you talking about popup ads? What update -- a system update to Oreo?

Preinstalled apps on Samsung phones have been known to carry ads (like Peel Remote), so it's possible that the system update might have also updated one of those bloatware apps to start showing ads.
