I have a Galaxy A32 5G that has started showing news and ad squares/bubbles/icons/notifications, I don't know what to call them, on the lock screen. Once the screen is unlocked they disappear. I don't want to see them at all. How do I make them go away all together?

Thanks for any assistance.

Uninstalling metro play app fixed it for me too.

I found Metro Play to be the app that was causing the bubbles to come up.  I have uninstalled and the bubbles are gone!

You, my dear, should be at the top of this thread!! For anyone with any Samsung device (I have an S22 Ultra) Metro Play installs itself!! I was trying EVERYTHING to make the news bubbles go away on my lockscreen, so frustrating to say the least!! Thank you so much for finding that it was Metro Play, seriously I can't thank you enough!

Yes I was doing everything once I uninstalled it they went away those adds popped up when it asked me if I wanted it and of course it didn't have a no button and then those things keeper opening in my pocket while the lock screen was on
