Google introduces new security features for Android, including scam call detection and live threat app monitoring.

Google is rolling out new security features for Android users to combat scam calls and malware. For Pixel phones, Scam Detection uses AI to identify potential scam calls in real-time, alerting users with audio and visual warnings. Google Play Protect now includes live threat detection, which monitors apps for harmful behavior and alerts users immediately if an app seems dangerous. Both features prioritize user privacy by processing data locally on the device. Google plans to expand these protections to other Android devices in the coming months.
