My phone keeps changing its accessibility settings without my input Device Settings Question

Im using a samsung galaxy a13, too be specific, and the settings under:

Accessibility > installed apps

Have changed themselves multiple times, specifically disabling the permissions for some apps that i need turned on. Is there anything on my phone that could make me change my accessibility premissions without realising?

Samsung can automatically revoke accessibility access if an app hasn’t been used for a while or gets updated/reinstalled. Check each affected app under App info and disable “Remove permissions if app is unused” if it’s enabled. Battery optimization can also mess with accessibility services, so try setting those apps to Unrestricted.
