Reminder
Guidance
Labelled "Reminder", this is Samsung's reminders and to-do app. Samsung Electronics publishes a Galaxy Store listing for "Reminder" at this package name, describing it as "a smart notification app that you can use to easily add things to do or remember, and to be reminded of them in advance according to the time, place and user situation". On this site it is recorded only on Samsung profiles, across OS API levels 28 to 36, signed by a Samsung OEM key that also signs the Android framework, a platform-level key. The Galaxy Store listing describes several ways into the app besides opening it: from the Calendar app, by voice through Bixby, through the Share button in other apps, and through an "Add to Reminder" button in some Samsung apps such as Messages. It states that creating a reminder by Bixby voice command requires being signed in to a Samsung account and connected to a network. The listing gives notifications as the one required permission and calendar, photos and videos, location, contacts, nearby devices, call logs and microphone as optional ones. This site's roll-up reports a maximum of 155 requested permissions, a list that includes background location, calendar read and write, call log, WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS and INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL, together with many permissions named for other Samsung services. This site aggregates permissions across observations rather than per build, so which builds declare each of them cannot be established. Version note: Samsung's own pages describe the Calendar link differently at different dates. A Samsung UK support article marked as updated on 5 October 2022 states that the Reminder app "has been hidden on most Samsung devices", that reminders had recently been removed from the calendar, and that opening Reminder from the Calendar app's menu adds an app shortcut to the app screen. The Galaxy Store listing read for this note, last modified on 22 September 2026 at version 12.7.07.10, describes creating a reminder from a Reminder tab in the Calendar app. Which One UI or Android release each behaviour belongs to could not be sourced. This site's roll-up reports version names from 11.6.08.6000 to 12.7.03.3. For Android Enterprise, EMM and kiosk use no management role is identified in the sources cited here. The listing ties it to Calendar, Bixby, Messages and the share sheet, and what those entry points do when this package is disabled is not documented in the sources cited here, so test on one device before disabling it across a fleet.
Package intelligence
Observed signing, permission, version and size signals from contributing devices - descriptive of that sample, not a verdict. These come from the v2 Package Search sync, which not every device has contributed to yet, so for some packages this detail is partial or not present at all.
- Signed by the device maker's own signing key (Samsung), so it is an OEM preinstall, and that single certificate is consistent across all 10 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 155 permissions: 13 runtime (user-granted), 15 signature or system-level, 16 install-time and 111 vendor or uncatalogued.
- APK size ranges from 19.5 MB to 42.6 MB across the reporting device profiles, so the build differs substantially between them.
- Reported as an updated system app in 7 of 14 observations - a newer build was installed over the one in the system image. Multiple observations can come from the same device profile.
Declared permissions (155)
Largest permission set observed for this package. Text is Android's own published description where one exists; platform permissions Android does not document show their granted protection level (in grey) instead; vendor or unknown constants show the name only.
