Thousands of mobile apps are reportedly suffering from performance issues on Samsung devices due to throttling. The issues are confined to Samsung users and have been linked to the manufacturer’s Game Optimizing Service software embedded in its smartphones. As Android Authority reported, the problem was initially identified on Samsung’s Korean community forums before making its way to Twitter. A list of 10,000 apps that are currently being affected can be seen here.
Included on the list are a number of popular apps that people use on a daily basis, like Instagram, Netflix, and TikTok. Some of Samsung’s own apps and services were affected as well, like Samsung Cloud, Samsung Pay, and Samsung Pass, among others.
