Not sure if it is like that because I’m in Korea, but on my Samsung S9 Samsung is injecting ads for their new S24 in my notifications. I’ve had the phone for 5 years and this is the first time I see ads in my phone notifications, unbelievable.

    I think that’s some app. Maybe one from Samsung, but it’s not the OS itself. OP probably unknowingly opted in to something. I have two S10e and never had an ad in the notifications. I don’t have a Samsung account. Could be related. … or it’s really a regional thing.

      Yep, pretty much everyone that gets stuff like this has opted in to one of the advertising options in the apps when clicking through the first time. Here was some of them on my S21 Ultra setup:
