S23 running OneUi 8.5

I have auto blocker turned off but it's blocking innocuous images. Why is it blocking anything at all if it's turned off??

How do I disable this. If it's going to flag incorrectly, it is serving as the malware it claims to block.

I tried toggling it on and back off and restarting the phone as well as clearing the app cache for discord. The image is still blocked.

To permanently keep Auto Blocker turned off, you need to disable Samsung's built-in automatic timer toggle within your security settings. Modern Samsung devices running One UI include a feature that automatically re-enables Auto Blocker after 30 minutes to protect your phone from staying unprotected indefinitely.

How to Keep Auto Blocker Off

Open your phone's Settings app.

Scroll down and select Security and privacy.

Tap on Auto Blocker.

Look for an option explicitly labeled Turn on automatically right below the description.

Toggle this feature OFF.

Once this sub-setting is disabled, turning off the main Auto Blocker switch will keep the feature deactivated permanently until you manually choose to turn it back on.
