After the One UI 7 update I've noticed in Google Messages that if I long press (to paste) there is the Galaxy AI icon. I have all of the AI features disabled. This shouldn't appear there. Just to test if it was a bug showing the icon, I clicked it. This brought up the Writing Assist panel that should be disabled.

I'm not sure if there are other apps that have the same issue, but I noticed this one this morning. I did attempt to test in Google Search Bar and it was not present.

If I click the settings icon in the Writing Assist panel, it takes me to Settings > Galaxy AI > Writing Assist where it does show that it is disabled. I verified the sub-setting "Chat Translation" was disabled as well.

This is obviously either a bug, or intentional. I hope it is a bug and that we have true control over Galaxy AI being enabled on our phones.

Need a patch to fix this issue please.

UPDATE: This bug is present here in Samsung Members as well.

Yep this stuff is so evil. Im fully integrated into the samsung ecosystem and work in tech in a position that can suggest mobile platforms to dozens of people a day. After this i'm done. I will never buy another samsung product, and I will tell absolutely everyone I encounter that samsung is a dead brand, hollowed out for AI. Look forward to the next open source option.
