Overview
- Google's AI-powered scam detection is now available on Pixel Watch 2 and 3 with the latest update.
- The feature uses on-device AI to analyze call patterns and alert users in real time during suspicious calls.
- Alerts include audible beeps, vibrations, and notifications, allowing users to respond directly from their smartwatch.
- The functionality requires a Pixel Watch to be paired via Bluetooth with a Pixel 9 or newer handset and supports only English-language calls in the US.
- Direct calls on LTE-enabled Pixel Watches are not supported, and Google emphasizes that the feature is not foolproof against evolving scam tactics.
