TL;DR
Samsung’s One UI 8.5 can prompt you to “say hello to your family†if you haven’t contacted them in a while.
The feature is apparently part of Now Brief and Now Bar and notes the number of days since you contacted a specific family member.
Samsung recently released the One UI 8.5 (https://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-one-ui-8-5-beta-hands-on-3623301/) beta software, allowing Galaxy S25 series (https://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-galaxy-s25-3437280/) owners to go hands-on with the upcoming update. There’s no shortage of features and tweaks, but it looks like Samsung has another nifty addition.
