Strange Download from Samsung on the Verizon Galaxy Note 4!

Do you see it under the "Running" section in the app manager? I have 6 Knox apps under "All", but I haven't installed the core Knox app. It asked me at first boot if I wanted to set it up and I declined.

I use the standard encryption since my company has not made Knox mandatory yet.

Do you have the Knox shortcut in your app drawer? If I click on mine it prompts me to download the Knox files.

No not under running. No I didn't get an option to set it up on initial boot up. There's no shortcut in my app drawer under apps or widgets. This is the only place on the phone I see anything that says Knox. Same with Note2 that was on Verizon

I wonder how you enter Knox mode then without a shortcut to launch it?

That's what I'm wondering as well, want to make sure I'm NOT in it.

Believe me. You'll know if you end up in it. I tried it out on my s4. What a PITA.

I just read an article about it and it sounds like what I need to split work/social life on one phone.

If all you wanna do is stick work calls, texts, & emails in a container, I'm sure it's great.

I was hoping I could setup my VPN in there so that Knox mode could have a password & I could leave a lock screen off the device itself if I wanted to. No dice.

It was a trick removing it the first time I tried it out. The second time went more smoothly.
