After announcing the feature at Google I/O 2024 in May, Google is now rolling out its AI-powered Scam Detection feature to the Pixel Phone app – although it’s only available in beta for US users for now.

The rollout was announced by Google in a blog post (via 9to5Google), with the promise that they will also appear on other Android devices besides Pixels in the future. For now, the 2021 Pixel 6 and all later Pixels are eligible for the update.
