Android New Features

You can keep yourself safe from scams with the help of AI technology. Google Messages has introduced a new feature that uses artificial intelligence to spot text patterns in conversations that are often linked to scams. Even if a message looks innocent at first, it could become risky later on. The scam detection process takes place directly on your device, ensuring that your private conversations stay confidential. If Google Messages thinks a message might be a scam, it will send you an immediate alert, which will allow you to block and report the conversation quickly. The tool will help you to avoid losing money or sharing personal information with scammers.

Share your location with people you trust using the Find My Device app. Your location information is securely stored, and you have full control over who can see your whereabouts and for how long. The app also sends you regular reminders about the contacts you are sharing your location with. With live location sharing, you can see where your friends are on a map, regardless of whether they are using a phone or tablet. This app not only helps you locate lost devices but also allows you to plan meetups with friends or check that a family member has arrived home safely.

There are now more gaming apps available on Android Auto, making it easier to enjoy some fun while parked. Whether you want to solve a quick puzzle or experience an exciting race, you can use your car's screen to play games like Farm Heroes Saga, Candy Crush Soda Saga, Angry Birds 2, and Beach Buggy Racing. Download your chosen game onto your mobile device, and you will be able to access it through Android Auto. Additionally, Circle to Search now has the capability to recognise phone numbers, email addresses, and URLs displayed on your screen. YouTube Tightens Policies on Online Gambling Content, Will Prohibit References, Logos or Links to Gambling Sites and Applications From March 19.
