My Galaxy S24 Ultra missed One UI 9's toughest security feature; I found a way around it

Samsung's Galaxy S24 Ultra missed out on One UI 9's toughest security feature, but the writer found a workaround. While older Androids and the Galaxy S24 Ultra didn't get the new security policy, the writer chose to look for an alternative instead of risking a full factory reset. The writer activated Auto factory reset, a Samsung setting that erases data after 20 incorrect screen lock attempts.

This is similar to the new lock screen security feature, but the writer emphasized that it comes with its own risks, especially for kids or those who accidentally trigger it. The writer urged readers to weigh the benefits against potential downsides before activating the feature.
