Google Chrome gets real-time Safe Browsing protections
Google announced Chrome will now use real-time Safe Browsing protections to show warnings on potentially dangerous sites. Following Chrome on desktop and iOS, the feature is coming to Android later this month.
Standard protection mode for Chrome will now check sites against Google’s server-side list of known bad sites in real-time. If Google suspects a site poses a risk to you or your device, you’ll see a warning with more information.
It uses encryption and other privacy-enhancing techniques to ensure that no one knows what website you’re visiting. Despite using even more assets from the browser, Chrome will continue to ensure a smooth and speedy experience.
Google recommends turning on Safe Browsing’s Enhanced Protection mode for more protection, thanks to the use of AI to block attacks, provides deep file scans, and offers extra protection from malicious Chrome extensions.

Google Messages new share UI rolling out widely
Android’s native Messages app evolves regularly with new features and enhancements. Earlier, Google Messages debuted a refreshed share UI, which is now rolling out widely. It is to be noted, that the messages application initially got this new design in October.
Google Messages now displays a fullscreen “Select recipients” UI when you select it from share sheet. You get five “Recent conversations” complete with a snippet of the last sent message. Tapping “More recent conversations” loads what appears to be your entire history.
Additionally, you will get a search button in the top-right corner. After this, your full contact list will appear, serving as a “New message” replacement for the old pop-up UI. Adding to this, tapping the “Next” FAB will let you continue and “Share individually.”
Google Messages is a great app available for texting online. It’s equipped with RCS capabilities to unlock a set of innovative features. At the same time, support for the evergreen SMS functionality makes it a great platform to consider.

New Google Phone Lookup feature makes looking up numbers easier
Google Phone added a new Lookup feature, allowing you to easily look up numbers on the web. This feature was in development for a couple of weeks and is starting to roll out gradually.
Recently, Google released the June 2024 Pixel Feature Drop. The software is suspected to have included a new Lookup button for Android’s native dialer application – Google Phone.
The new button lets users lookup unknown phone numbers right from the call log. You will no longer be required to copy the phone number and manually search on Google Search.
Lookup button is available in the Phone app’s version 132.0.639579382. It is uncertain that the feature will get activated on your phone immediately after installing the recently released Pixel June Feature Drop.
Well, here’s a drawback of the feature. Phone numbers belonging to businesses may be looked up in the manner you want. Personal phone numbers have no identity on Google Search, making it less useful for individual contacts.
