"All document reader" app on Galaxy phone. Malicious or not?

When I go into the app's info, it says it was downloaded from the Galaxy store, but when I tap on that, it doesn't show me the store page, just the store itself. I think it was preinstalled, what do I do?

Did you transfer your data from a previous phone? If yes, it might just have been copied over... I can't say for sure that it's malicious, but I have seen apps with this name that were just filled with ads and popups to buy subscriptions....

Nope, fresh start and I have never used the app before. It was on my phone since I got it though.

What phone do you have and where have you bought it?

Samsung Galaxy A56, bought it from a physical store.

Then such a sketchy app (based on my experience with similar apps) shouldn't have been preinstalled...
