Privacy controls for your Frame TV

  • Disable unwanted voice assistants: Block selected Bixby, Alexa, speech-recognition and wake-word components, including background services used for hands-free listening.
  • Turn off microphone-based sound sensing: Disable the ambient-sound feature used for sound detection and automatic Art Mode presence sensing. Manual Art Mode remains available.
  • Reduce advertising and usage reporting: Block selected advertising, analytics and diagnostic-reporting services.
  • Disable apps and integrations you don’t use: Optional controls cover TV Plus, Gaming Hub, Samsung Health, selected SmartThings integrations and SmartThings Find.
  • Stop selected screen-recognition services: Disable components that identify games and apps from what appears on screen.
  • Control trusted certificate issuers: Optionally remove four eMudhra/emSign certificates from selected TV trust stores. Apps with their own certificate stores are unaffected.
  • Choose when to update firmware: Turn off automatic firmware updates while keeping manual updates available.
  • Keep changes reversible: Save original settings for restoration, with optional automatic reapplication after restarting the TV. Improved checks also catch selected apps running through Samsung’s shared app launchers.

Compatibility and limits: Support is currently limited to the Frame Pro QN65LS03FWFXZA running firmware 1301.0. Apps are disabled rather than uninstalled, and AI model files remain installed. These controls do not establish that every microphone input, advertising component or telemetry source is blocked.
