com.samsung.android.app.interpreter Copy

A Samsung app whose English label is "Interpreter", with localised equivalents in other locales recorded here such as "Dolmetscher", "Interprete" and "Tłumacz". It is signed by a Samsung OEM key that also signs the Android framework, a platform-level key, and it is user-facing: this site records it as user-visible on 22 of the 23 devices it has been seen on. Samsung documents an Interpreter app on Galaxy devices as part of Galaxy AI, describing it as translating in-person conversations in real time and presenting each side in a split-screen view, so two people facing each other can each read the other's speech, with further languages added as downloadable language packs. Samsung's pages document that feature rather than this package, so the tie between the two rests on the matching label and on Samsung's Knox documentation listing "Interpreter" among the Galaxy AI operations an administrator can block. That is a reasonable reading, not a Samsung statement that this package is the app. Version note: Galaxy AI is a recent addition rather than a long-standing Samsung feature. Samsung's Knox documentation states that "Galaxy AI features are available on Galaxy S24 series devices running One UI 6.1 (Android 14) or later with Knox 3.10 or later". This site's earliest observation of the package is at API 34 (Android 14), with roll-ups running to API 37 (Android 17) and versions from 1.0.48.42 to 1.2.11.6; those are independent minimum and maximum roll-ups rather than a per-build pairing. The management side arrived in stages after the feature: Samsung documents the policies that block Galaxy AI as "only supported on devices running Knox 3.11 or later", and the Knox 3.13 release notes state that "with Knox 3.13, you can use Knox Service Plugin to manage Galaxy AI features on the Wallpaper and Audio Eraser apps, along with any other newly introduced apps". Which individual operations a given build exposes to policy therefore depends on its Knox version, so check against the version your fleet is on rather than against this note. For Android Enterprise, EMM and kiosk use, the point worth carrying away is that on a Samsung fleet you do not have to disable the package to control the feature. Knox Service Plugin exposes "Block all galaxy AI", which Samsung documents as "Set True to disable all Galaxy AI features", and "Block individual galaxy AI operations", whose list names Interpreter alongside Call Assist, Writing Assist and others. Separately, Samsung documents a data-processing control that keeps Galaxy AI work on the device, where a feature that cannot process locally is disabled instead, which is the lever to reach for where the concern is conversation content leaving the device rather than the feature itself. Disabling the package is a reasonable fallback on a locked-down build with no Knox policy channel, and if it is the app its label indicates, disabling it would remove that app; whether any other Galaxy AI surface, such as call translation, depends on this package could not be sourced, so test before rolling it out, and prefer the policy route where it is available, since that is the control Samsung documents for this feature.

• Signed by the device maker's own signing key (Samsung), so it is an OEM preinstall, and that single certificate is consistent across all 11 device profiles. It also signs the Android framework, so it is a platform-level key on its device(s). Inferred from the certificate appearing only on Samsung devices (580 packages, 11729 observations).
• Its largest observed manifest declares 92 permissions: 5 runtime (user-granted), 12 signature or system-level, 10 install-time and 65 vendor or uncatalogued.
• Reported as an updated system app in 4 of 24 observations - a newer build was installed over the one in the system image. Multiple observations can come from the same device profile.
