Popups

How can I get rid of these pop up's

What pop ups?  Being more descriptive would help.  Usually pop ups generate from some app you downloaded.  Uninstall the most recent apps you installed just prior this happening.  Download Good Lock and the Nice Catch module and turn on detect toasts and detect commercials, then identify the app(s) that is causing the condition and uninstall it.

☆ Use Samsung’s Nice Catch app
Some apps are malicious and can have undesirable effects on your device when installed, knowingly or unknowingly. If you’re experiencing unexpected or unexplained ads, pop-ups, wake-ups, etc., Samsung’s Nice Catch app can help identify the offending app so that you can delete it.


Turn on the various categories in Nice Catch.
When the undesirable behavior happens again, check Nice Catch to see which app triggered it.

I can't even open chrome without being bombarded with pop up ads. I'm sick of them. I've thought about disabling chrome & using Bing or some other browser. I know they make $ on pop ups but come on if u can't even see what u looked up on chrome what's the sense

The pop ups come from neither Google nor Samsung.  They come from installing rogue apps (ad supported apps) and/or, in the case of the browsers, clicking bad links or visiting sketchy web sites.
