What is accidental touch protection on Samsung?

Samsung has a feature called 'Accidental Touch Protection' that helps prevent accidental touches to the screen when the phone is in a dark place, such as a pocket or bag. If this feature is enabled on your Galaxy phone, the phone won't wake up automatically until you unlock it yourself.

This feature uses your phone's light sensor to keep the screen inactive and prevent accidental touches. It's available on most Samsung Galaxy phones.
