So, for whatever reason Samsung decided to cripple North American dual-sim phones by not allowing option to set Default SIM individually for Calls, Messages, and Data. This totally sucks when you want to travel and use a separate SIM just for Data. This app is godsend because through the "More Network Settings" menu I am able to make the changes I want. Thanks, Dev!! Still works as of Aug 2023. (Latest updates only blocked ability to select network bands, which doesn't affect SIM selection menu)
