TL;DR

• Samsung’s One UI 9 beta introduces a Security Report to Auto Blocker, allowing users to view a seven-day or monthly history of blocked app installations from unknown sources.


• The Maximum restrictions mode in Auto Blocker on One UI 9 now completely blocks USB connections, a significant step up from the command-only blocking found in One UI 8.5’s standard Auto Blocker mode.


• These features are currently live in the One UI 9 beta 1 for the Galaxy S26 series.

Auto Blocker on One UI helps keep you safe from security threats, suspicious activity, and privacy risk by blocking some common attack vectors. Samsung has been improving the user experience for Auto Blocker, with One UI 8.5 adding the ability for Auto Blocker to re-enable itself after 30 minutes of being turned off. With One UI 9, Auto Blocker is getting new features, including a security report and complete USB connection blocking in Maximum restrictions mode.
