The app keeps sending a notification when the battery is low, but it pauses the wireless charge to tell me that it's low! I cannot force stop or turn off the notification, so it keeps pausing the charge and increasing the amount of time it takes to get my phone battery charged up. This is very frustrating, and I would uninstall it if I wasn't sure it wouldn't cause a phone issue.

I try to go into my phone Settings but then it automatically goes into the Device Maintenance app. I have all notifications turned off. If I press the back button on the phone to go back to Settings, it automatically goes back into Device Maintenance. Constantly looping back. Getting Very frustrating. Have removed battery, didn't help. Fixing to see how far I can throw this damn thing!

It's horrible. The last update wrecked my phone. My phone now runs extremely hot regardless of what it's doing, including charging and it can no longer hold a charge. Also, no matter how many times my phone locks up, activating device care is useless. It only ever shows 100%, which it obviously isn't or it wouldn't be seizing up. If this isn't fixed & I need to get another phone, you can bet it won't be Samsung.
