 Google has rolled out five new features for its Google Messages app on Android devices, aimed at enhancing user security and protecting against scams. The updates include enhanced scam detection, which automatically moves suspected scam texts into the spam folder or warns users about potential con jobs. Additionally, Google is introducing Sensitive Content Warnings that blur images containing nudity before giving users options to view the content. The company is also working on a contact-verifying feature to confirm the identity of message senders.
