Samsung announced a new privacy feature for its smartphones. The company calls it “anti-peep mode.” This technology stops people from viewing your screen from the sides. It aims to prevent unwanted glances in public places.

Samsung revealed the feature today. The tech uses special sensors and software. These detect when someone else looks at your phone screen. The system then instantly obscures the screen content for the side viewer. Only the person holding the phone directly in front sees the clear information.
The Galaxy S series phones will get this feature first. Samsung plans to include it in future models too. The company stated privacy is a major user concern. People often worry about others looking at their screens on buses, trains, or cafes. This new mode directly addresses that common worry.
Users activate “anti-peep mode” through the settings menu. They can toggle it on or off easily. Samsung engineers developed the system over several years. They tested it extensively in real-world situations. The goal was reliable performance without draining battery life quickly.
Samsung believes this offers significant privacy protection. It prevents sensitive information from being seen accidentally. This includes banking details, messages, or personal photos. The feature works automatically once enabled. Users don’t need to press any extra buttons.

The technology relies on the phone’s front camera and sensors. These components monitor the viewing angles around the device. If an unauthorized angle is detected, the screen content blurs for that viewer. The phone owner’s view remains perfectly clear. Samsung expects this feature to be popular. Many users experience “shoulder surfing.” This new tool directly combats that invasion of privacy. The update will roll out globally with the next software release.
