Key Points:

Samsung has launched the Hearapy app for Android, designed to work with Galaxy Buds4 Pro to temporarily alleviate motion sickness.
The app plays a 100Hz sine wave at 75-85dB, based on a Japanese University of Nagoya study showing this frequency can improve balance and reduce motion sickness.
Hearapy can be downloaded from the Play Store and, while optimized for Galaxy Buds4 Pro, it may also work with other earbuds or headphones.
Listening to the tone for about a minute can relieve motion sickness symptoms for up to two hours, with the option to repeat as needed.
