This is how Google will detect spam calls on Android very soon
Table of contents:
Although there are already applications available to identify spam numbers or create blacklists with unwanted contacts, it seems that Google still eluded these features. Now, there is hope for the near future. And it is that, scrutinizing one of the latest versions of the Google Phone application, which is the one that Android phones have without a customization layer, they have discovered that the company is working to include some interesting functions.From correctly identify the caller to being able to record voicemail messages. Of course, we will still have to wait.
Call detection
Google phone identifies calls and switchboards. The issue is that there are still phone numbers not saved in the phone book that may contain spam calls. To fix it, and according to the code discovered by Android Police in the latest version of the application, they would introduce call detection. This is an intermediate step that would ask the incoming call who it is and the reason for it, transcribing what is said so that it appears on the screen before to pick up the phone.
This way it will be easier to decide whether or not to take the call or identify the number that is calling. The transcription and information would be stored and associated with the telephone number to have this data in future incoming calls.
Voicemail Messages
The idea with this function is not completely groundbreaking, but it is much more comfortable. If you have this service, some operators allow you to customize the message to receive voice messages to our liking. Of course, the process is quite tedious. However, future versions of the Google Phone app will add this feature to make it accessible to anyone.
Basically it will allow to record those voice lines with which to inform that you are not available and that you can leave your message after the tone . Presumably, everything will be more comfortable and simple through this application, without having to fight with robots or automated machines of the telephone companies.
Now, for now, all this content is in the internal testing phase Hidden features in the code of the last update, without can be used or know more details about them. This makes us think that there are still many weeks left to be able to count on the mentioned characteristics.
In addition, keep in mind that they will only be available to those mobiles that have the Android operating system in its purest version . That is, without phone applications from manufacturers such as Samsung, LG, Huawei, etc.
