Fake Call Detection

The proprietary Phone dialer app now includes a fake call detection feature. It verifies whether an incoming call is genuine and alerts users to spoofed calls that appear to come from trusted contacts.

Enhanced Child Safety

The Personal Safety app has been upgraded with new capabilities for underage users. It now displays medical information, emergency contacts, car crash detection, and location-sharing features to help keep children safe.

Digital Wardrobe Expansion

Google Photos now catalogues clothing items found in images, creating a digital closet. Users can mix and match outfits and use a 'Try it on' preview feature to see how clothes look together. This feature is available to all Android users.

E-book Recap Feature

Google Play Books introduces a 'Catch me up' recap option, along with book insights. Users can highlight passages and ask questions while reading, making it easier to engage with content.

Cross-Platform File Sharing

QuickShare-AirDrop now enables instant wireless file transfers between Android and iPhone devices, bridging the gap between the two platforms.

This update reflects Google's commitment to improving user experience across security, safety, and convenience.
