New lock screen feature on s22 ultra

[ambiguousguy]

Hello, I'm new here looking to see if anyone knows how I can disable this new lock screen feature. It pops up everytime to go to open my phone, if i hit the home button it will disappear and send me to my actual lock screen.

My wife had this on her phone as well. She got it from clicking the X to close an ad playing June's Journey. The ad secretly installs a search app. I don't remember the name of it but go into your recently installed apps and you'll find it. Once I uninstalled the app her phone went back to normal.

Thank you so much. US cellular must've installed a news app on my phone and once I Uninstalled it went away.

You're welcome. My wife was not a happy camper when it happened to her!
