Disable Galaxy Store App Permissions
Remove Galaxy Store app permissions to prevent apps from being installed on autopilot. To accomplish this go to Settings > Apps > Galaxy Store > Permissions. Here, under Allow, select Do not allow next to Allow. After this, you will get a pop-up; Just tap Don’t Allow.
By doing so, the Galaxy Store app will have difficulty downloading files and using other phone resources. When you remove permissions and launch it the program will request permission again. To deny them, be sure to tap Don’t Allow on the pop-up.
