Stop. I have functional use of my phone. I use my phone when I need to use it and notifications are entirely unnecessary for me. I wish I could stop this service, along with the other Samsung apps. The only one I use is Samsung keyboard because a keyboard is a keyboard in my opinion. All these additional services are the equivalent of obesity - just extra stuff I really don't need or want. Bloatware. Malware. Spyware. And stop with targeted things that worship advertising.

Ever notice that there is a constant stream of apps you "must have" and that are constantly being "updated" with permissions they need in order for your phone to work correctly or for you to have an "enhanced" experience. Bloatware at best! Every app should have a truthful "Essential" label and a delete button if it's not so it could be deleted for good at the user's discretion. Crapware!
