What it does

Motion prompts puts a small set of dots on the screen that shift with the vehicle, using the phone's accelerometer to follow its motion and direction. The dots give your eyes a cue that matches what your body feels, which is designed to ease the sensory conflict behind car sickness.

Which vivo phones have it

  • vivo X300
  • vivo X300 Pro

Other vivo phones get Motion prompts with their OriginOS 6 update where the feature is included; vivo notes that features vary by system version and model.

If you can't find it

  • Your phone may still be on an older system, or your model may not include the feature.
  • Phones sold outside China may name or place the setting differently.
  • Once your vivo runs OriginOS 7, vivo's Android 17 update, Google's Motion Assist is the other route.

The other route: Google Motion Assist

Google's Motion Assist draws the same kind of dots on phones running Android 17 or later with an up to date Google Play services. It reached Pixel phones first, then Galaxy phones on One UI 9 in September 2026, and a Play services update on September 21, 2026 opened it to other Android 17 phones. On a vivo phone it arrives with that phone's Android 17 update. To look for it, search Settings for motion assist. The rollout is staged, so an eligible phone can take a while to show it.

The full cross-brand picture is in which phones have the motion sickness dots, and every launch is dated in motion sickness tech news.

What the dots can't do

The dots help while you are looking at the screen. They are a prevention aid for reading or scrolling as a passenger, not a way to stop nausea that has already started, and they do nothing once the phone is away. If it builds anyway, put the phone down, look out at the horizon and get some fresh air.
