A new report from Android Authority says Samsung is working on a feature called Driving Insights, an AI driving assistant discovered inside early One UI 9 firmware code. The idea appears to be simple: use the phone to monitor how someone drives, then turn that data into practical feedback.
Based on the code strings described in the report, the app is meant to help users understand their driving patterns more clearly and gradually build safer habits over time. Instead of acting like navigation software, it seems focused on behavior analysis after and during trips.
The leaked details suggest the system can track things like acceleration, cornering angle, and braking force by combining phone sensors, precise location data, and AI-based analysis. In other words, Samsung may be trying to turn an everyday phone into a lightweight driving behavior monitor.
The report also says the app can generate weekly summaries and deliver them through Samsung’s Now Brief experience. Those summaries could include short descriptions of a user’s driving style, such as noting that someone drove cautiously and smoothly during the week, or pointing out a more aggressive pattern and suggesting steadier speed and steering.
After long-distance trips, the system may also surface fatigue-related reminders. One example cited in the report says the app could warn that the user spent more time on long drives that week and should take breaks to avoid tired driving.
From a workflow standpoint, the feature is said to support automatic Bluetooth triggering. Once a phone connects to a car’s Bluetooth system, Driving Insights could begin logging the trip on its own. Users would then be able to review trip history later and filter records by time or distance.
Leaked screenshots mentioned in the report show onboarding screens, settings pages, trip history, and permission prompts. Samsung hasn’t announced the feature officially, but the amount of interface work already visible suggests this AI driving assistant may be more than a rough experiment.
