Enhanced spam protection through automatic labeling of suspected spam messages in Google Voice
If you’re using Google Voice, you’re familiar with Google’s suspected spam caller warnings.
Google are extending this feature to SMS messages on Android and iOS devices.
You’ll see these labels within the message, and you can either:
- Confirm a suspected spam message, which causes future messages from that number to go directly into the spam folder.
- Mark a labelled message as not spam, after which the suspected spam label is never displayed for that number again.
Birthday decorations for people cards

Birthday decorations will be displayed on your birthday if you’ve added your birthday to your Google Account profile and you’ve set the information to be visible to others.
