Samsung had a nice app for reading its phone oximeter / pulse device. Now it wants to own your data with unlimited rights to sell it.

A third party app showed up, and deceptively hides that it expects to be able to sell your info in order to use the app.

Because of my distrust and tech ignorance I refuse to have any kind of "APP" on my phone, including the weather app.

I never trust anyone telling me they're doing me a favor I didn't ask for.

I have a phone that's more of a nuisance than a convenience.

I read my email from one email source but never respond from my phone.

I recently recieved a $5 check from my bank to deposit using an app they want me to put on my phone. The check can only be deposited with the app I don't have.

I have news for the bank. I (you) can keep anything received unsolicited in the US mail.

I have a Samsung phone and I absolutely hate it. It’s the worst phone I’ve ever had. I send my other Samsung phone that I had to my daughter in Texas for my grandson, but her husband kept it instead.
