Samsung iap

Hi all. I am very new to Android phones having used an iphone for the last 6 years. I am not that clued up on IT stuff generally, so my questions may seem very blonde! :-)
On my notifications page, it is downloading something called SAMSUNG IAP. Now as far as I can work out this stands for In App Purchases? what is it downloading? It has been downloading all day. How do I stop this?
Thanks for any help.
:confused:
 
It's part of the garbage Samsung puts on their phones. Unless you want to get into rooting (jailbreaking on an iPhone), just let it finish downloading. If you want to turn the phone off in the middle, turn it off. If the app doesn't fully download, that's Samsung's problem.

Thanks for this reply.
 
Samsung puts a LOT of garbage on thier phones :(

They're trying to replace Google's ecosystem with thier own, Just about all the apps are Sansung's version (mail,calander,etc)
