TL;DR
- Samsung is starting to roll out an update to its Family Hub refrigerators in the US that will introduce a new widget that serves curated advertisements.
- Cover screen advertisements are scheduled to start showing up next week or later.
- You’ll have the option to dismiss these advertisements or turn the widget off.
Last month, some Samsung Family Hub smart refrigerator owners began pointing out something peculiar about the update they received. The changelog for the update mentioned that the cover screen would begin displaying advertisements, among other information. A new update is now rolling out that will bring this to all Family Hub fridges with screens above a certain size. However, there is also a way for you to shut those ads down before they even start showing up.
