Setting intelligence??!

[Android Central Question]

What does setting intelligence mean ?? I see it often shows on my Google activity. First it shows android.settings, then com.android.settings.intelligence. At the same time it shows Samsung Internet browser, is it because I delete something ?? I have tried searching on Google but do not get a good answer on what it is ??
Anyone can explain?

The system intelligence is a system app by Google. It will run in the background. It is nothing to worry about.

Are you sure about that? Strange that it shows that I have first been to settings, right afterwards it shows setting intelligence, and the same time shows Samsung Internet browser. When I search on Google, does it say in some places that intelligence means that you change profile? Do not quite understand it.
But it's not every day it shows.

What do you mean by what setting it's on?

maybe someone knows what setting intelligence means on Samsung s21. I do not think there is anything running in the background. it's probably something I use or use myself, but do not quite know what it is?

Can you show us a screenshot of where you're seeing "setting intelligence"? I think everyone here is assuming you mean "Android System Intelligence."

yes i mean com.android.settings.intelligence. but every time it shows it also shows com.android.setting. And com.android.setting always shows on Google activity when I go to settings .. so I know what it is, but do not understand why android intelligence shows at the same time

Like I mentioned Google activities will show you many things and they will be worded as such maybe even duplicated , there too many to know what every process is doing to go over , take a look at my Note20U under system apps , Samsung combined with user apps will have over 400 installed

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. Android System Intelligence use to be called Device Personalization Services (as mentioned in the previous link shared by mustang7757). It's also not unusual for other system apps to ping your Google account -- they're just refreshing data. Things are working as they should.

I searched on google and found this: « Android Settings Intelligence is an automatic profile changer for Android. It's the whole system and you can not uninstall it. Do not worry, it is not malicious software or anything. The purpose of the app is to let you build profiles, which can be incredibly useful.»

profile changer? what do they mean by that?

 

[B. Diddy]

Did you read the link from 9to5Google that mustang7757 shared above in post 11? From that link: “Device Personalization Services” is the method through which Google delivers and updates features like Now Playing (on Pixel), Live Caption, and smart actions in notifications to Android devices. This app, updated via the Play Store, is now being renamed to “Android System Intelligence,” at least on Google Pixel phones.

Anyone can explain?

What you were talking about is AOSP's settings intelligence app, and not Google's "Android system intelligence" spyware. Everyone misunderstood. This app actually provides the "search" function in Settings. If you disable it, the search bar will be gone.

And to those who said that it's "completely normal" for apps to run in the background and ping google: do you even know what spyware is?

 

[B. Diddy]

It's not spyware. Spyware is unwanted apps that maliciously gather data against the user's will. Using Google apps requires the user to agree to terms and conditions, and Google's privacy policy clearly states what kind of data is collected and what's done with it. It's the same with Samsung's and Apple's ecosystem.
