{"package_name":"com.samsung.android.app.camera.sticker.facearavatar.preload","label":"Crocro and friends","device_count":40,"observation_count":60,"user_facing_count":0,"first_seen":"2025-05-05T17:48:10Z","last_seen":"2026-09-18T01:54:07Z","guidance":{"summary":"Recorded on devices as \"Crocro and friends\", this is a preloaded Samsung sticker content pack tied to Samsung's avatar sticker features. Samsung has documented AR Emoji Stickers as part of the AR Zone app, where a set of sticker packs ships on the device and further packs can be downloaded from a Download Stickers section. This package sits in Samsung's camera sticker namespace, and the only permission it requests is com.samsung.android.provider.stickerprovider.permission.FACE_AR, Samsung's private permission for its face AR sticker provider, which fits a character pack that publishes stickers into that provider rather than an app in its own right.\n\nSamsung does not publish package-level documentation for individual sticker packs, so the link between this package and the sticker feature is inferred from its namespace, label and permission rather than sourced directly. In our sample it is Samsung-signed, preinstalled, has no launcher entry, and is large for what it appears to do, at roughly 30 to 35 MB.\n\nVersion note: the feature around it was renamed. Samsung's current documentation describes Galaxy Avatar, and calls its stickers Avatar Stickers, on devices running One UI 7, which is Samsung's Android 15 release, while its older articles describe AR Emoji Stickers inside AR Zone. Whether this package's role changed with that rename could not be sourced. Our sample records the package on devices from Android 10 (API 29) through to current releases, with package versions spanning 4.1.00 to 9.0.00, so it has been present across that whole period. Which sticker characters a particular build contains could not be sourced either.\n\nFor Android Enterprise, EMM and kiosk use it has no management role: it takes no part in enrolment or policy and exposes nothing an administrator configures. It is optional entertainment content and no Samsung or Android documentation records anything depending on it, so on a locked-down or single-purpose device it is a reasonable candidate for disabling. The expected effect is that those sticker characters stop being offered, but that is inferred rather than documented, and the precise consequences of disabling it were not established, so test on a single device first.","safe_to_disable":"safe","sources":[{"title":"How to Use AR Emoji Stickers - Samsung
