Hi, I just bought a Tab A (2019 version model SM-T510). The Game Laucher is missing. I couldn't find it in galaxy store, google play store, and I did not see an option under Advance features either.

 

How do I fix this? Thank you!

Another CS told me that this feature is not available on all models. He said only their "flagship" models have it - S series. So I don't know if it applies to phone models as well.

As far as Tab A series, it's not available. I've already returned mine... 

Hope that helps.

I'm sorry to hear that have you tried the following? 

Note: If Game Launcher is not available in the Settings menu, you must install and launch a game first.

  1. From Settings, search for and select Game Launcher. Then, tap the switch to turn it on if needed.

    Game Launcher switched on in Advanced features on a Galaxy phone

  2. Next, open Game Launcher from the Apps screen. Review the information, and then tap Agree.

  3. If you want to add the Game Launcher icon to your Home screen, touch and hold the icon and then tap Add to Home.

  4. Review the marketing information and select your desired preference, and then tap Start.

  5. Review the following information, and then tap Hide games. Game app icons will now be displayed in the Game Launcher.

unfortunately I did not even have the option in the screen you are showing. I was with Tech support for an hour and half. They couldn't figure out and told me to exchange for a new one from Amazon. I did. And still have the same problem.

If you do not see the Game Launcher, go to Apps and search "Game Launcher". You will get an option to install it from the Galaxy Store.
