Samsung “borrows” the Dynamic Island from the iPhone for its S25
The Galaxy S25s have afunction clearly inspired by Dynamic Island of the iPhone called “Now Bar”. It aims to display information such as incoming calls, music playback controls, app-specific alerts, and voice recording updates. Users can swipe up on the interface to move from one piece of information to another.
«The taskbar, supported by upcoming Galaxy S devices, will transform the function of the lock screen, which will continue to evolve towards smarter experiences », Samsung already wrote in a press release last December.

Of course, Now Bar has its own design. You will have to wait for the One UI 7 update based on Android 15 to discover this new function on Galaxy S25.
