Samsung’s next smart alert might change how you track packages
The latest findings come from strings of code found inside the Samsung Messages app. One line reads, “You got webp%2$d messages today about a delivery%3$s,” while another references, “%d unread messages, including 1 package delivery message.” These messages suggest that Now Brief will not only surface package-related updates but also count how many such messages were received that day.
This could be helpful for people who want to stay on top of deliveries without constantly checking their apps or emails. Whether it’s a new gadget or a personal order, being alerted directly through Now Brief could make the process more convenient.

However, it’s worth noting that these findings are based on an APK teardown, which looks at unreleased code hidden inside an app. These features are often experimental and may never make it to a public release.
If Samsung moves forward with these updates, Now Brief could become a more useful daily tool. It has already shifted from just showing calendar and weather info to offering a wider range of smart alerts.
We’ll have to wait and see whether delivery alerts will be included in a future update. But the continued development around Now Brief and the Messages app suggests Samsung is still looking for ways to improve its software experience, even if some of these tools stay behind the scenes for now.
