I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T813 running Android 7.0 any Accessibility Services I turn on turn themselves off upon reboot of my device. I then have to go back in and turn them back on manually one of which is for an app locker app. If I forget to do it, it poses a security risk for me. Anybody have any idea as to why this is happening and how I might fix it?
 
Welcome to the forums. I have a couple of those and they stay after a reboot. Do you see any kind of related message or error? Wondering if the app locker might be the cause, but that's just a guess.

No messages or errors. The app is App Locker for Hide Photos, Video-Hide it Pro. Would you be willing to test/troubleshoot it for yourself? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good try, but no :) I have my phone just where I want it. I moved your question to the correct forum, I hope. You should see more responses from those who have the same device, should be more helpful.
 
!!! PROBLEM SOLVED !!!
I'm such a lameo all I did was uninstall and re-install the app and accessibility service stays on after reboot. Apparently I had a corrupt install. Sorry to have wasted anyones time I know better than not to check something so simple. Anyways thanks for your help.
