Android GMS app-teardown
この記事のポイント
  • The motion sickness reduction feature for Android, “Motion Sickness Assist,” which is still currently in development, may be officially released starting with the next-generation Android OS, “Android 17.”
  • An analysis of the app files from the Android version of the “Google Play services” app v26.31 update confirmed the addition of resource codes related to the direct integration of the Android motion sickness reduction feature “Motion Sickness Assist (Motion Cues / Motion Assist)” with system services in “Android 17 (API 37).”
  • Notably, nearly one year has passed since the existence of “Motion Cues” was first confirmed.

The motion sickness reduction feature for Android was initially developed under the name “Motion Cues,” after which its internal app name was changed to “Motion Assist.”

Following that, “Motion Assist” was changed to “Motion Sickness Assist” internally within the app. However, “Motion Cues,” “Motion Assist,” and “Motion Sickness Assist” have not yet been officially released.

It remains a feature that is still actively being developed internally within the app.

Although the Android motion sickness reduction feature “Motion Sickness Assist” is still currently in development, there is a possibility that its official rollout will debut on Android devices equipped with the next-generation Android OS, “Android 17.” This possibility was brought to light through our original site content, “App Teardown.”

As a result of analyzing the app files from the Android version of the “Google Play services” app v26.31 update released in mid-August 2026, we confirmed that resource codes related to the direct integration of the Android motion sickness reduction feature “Motion Sickness Assist (Motion Cues / Motion Assist)” with “Android 17 (API 37)” system services have been added. Additionally, we have confirmed the implementation of the system service (TileService) for the “Quick Settings Tile.”
