Google has announced a number of new features for Android users, including an AI-powered scam detection tool for its Google Messages service.
The aim of the new feature is to protect Android users from text message scams, monitoring SMS, MMS and RCS messages in real time to detect suspect patterns.
Upon detection, Google Messages will present a warning message, allowing users to dismiss it or report and block the sender.
The tool is launching in English and rolling out first in the USA, UK and Canada, with more countries to follow soon.
Also announced was live location sharing via the Find My app, allowing users to share location data with trusted contacts for specified periods of time, with regular reminders about who the information is being shared with.
Further features included multicamera streaming support for Pixel devices and new text-to-image options in Pixel Studio.
