I can't get trusted places to turn on. I have set this up on every phone I have ever owned. It just won't turn on.

Updated Google Play Services to the current version. Wiped cache in Google Play Services and cache partition !

Anyone else with this problem on their S25U?

Sounds like a viable solution. Thanks for confirming. I'll give it a shot.

Update: Works perfectly! Thanks @Popsicle20 and @Robin621k !

I too with new S25+ can not turn trusted places on.  Works with trusted device.  In my case the main screen says trusted places is off, tap to turn on - which just takes you to the screen to select location, but no way to turn it on.

I have found the FIX.  The toggle ON/OFF is the Text line above the list of trusted places (also same for body detection)  in the lock screen and AOD menu sub menu Extend Unlock.

Just click that line (see below) as the On OFF.  The graphic  lock does NOT change (it should!)  But once clicked you can see the location is now active.

"Use trusted places for Extend Unl.."

Not very intuitive!

This worked for me, thank you so much! I do agree though, it's not at all intuitive.

You gotta be kidding me. Tapping the text "Use trusted places for Extend Unlock" is the toggle? That has to be the most asinine design language I have ever seen.

EDIT: There is very small ON/OFF text that changes when you tap that toggle. Virtually impossible to see in dark mode. Get it together, Samsung. 🙄

See my answer further down - you have to tap on the text line for the toggle on/off -

"Use trusted places for Extend Unl.."

whoever designed that needs to go back to school...
