Google Messages to get an enhanced protection mode: Gemini in the cloud will assess the intent of unknown senders

Your phone will read suspicious conversations for you and warn you about scammers, if you allow it.
The new setting is opt-in and will arrive in the coming weeks: cloud Gemini models assess the other party's intentions in a conversation with an unknown sender. Google explains that scammers hide their motives behind long conversations; data is encrypted and processed in a secure isolated environment, Private AI Compute. Gemini Nano on the device will also check links in messages. The feature supports Pixel 10 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S26, Z Flip and Fold 8, and a number of other devices. Screen-sharing protection is promised this month and call-forwarding protection in early December.
