The Galaxy S25 series has a car crash detection sensor

Android smartphones have some personal security features that you wish you’d never use, but you’re glad they exist because of the peace of mind they bring. Car crash detection is a feature we saw pixel smartphonebut is strangely missing in other aspects of Top Android Smartphones. Samsung has long been working on bringing this feature to its flagships, but we haven’t heard of any further progress. along with Galaxy S25 seriesSamsung has once again added a car crash detection sensor, although the feature is nowhere to be found.

We’ve discovered some leaked documents for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and after digging into them, we can confirm that the device will feature a car crash sensor.

However, while all of these phones are equipped with sensors capable of determining if a crash has occurred, the crash detection feature does not appear to be enabled on any of these devices in any region. We couldn’t find any resources or user reports about the feature, nor is it available in the Settings app, so we’re inclined to believe Samsung is still working on the feature (unless we missed the silent rollout).

The car crash detection wake-up sensor on these Samsung devices is said to be a composite sensor, a virtual sensor that processes and fuses data from the underlying physical sensors. The version of One UI is as old as One UI 5.1.1. There is a hidden system app called “MoccaMobile” that contains the code to start and stop the crash sensors, but Samsung has not activated any user interface related to the crash detection feature.

We’ll have to wait and see whether Samsung will eventually release car crash detection features on the Galaxy S25 series. Thanks to the presence of this sensor, buyers of the new flagships can rest assured that their phones will have the feature as soon as it becomes available.
