Google is working on some exciting updates for its popular apps, Messages and Calendar.
First up, Google Messages is getting a new feature to help you deal with spam. This feature will automatically categorize messages from unknown international numbers as “cross-country.” This can be helpful if you’re receiving a lot of unwanted messages from overseas.
Google is also making improvements to its Calendar app. The app is getting a visual refresh with new “flairs.” These flairs are like small images that can be added to events to make them more visually appealing. For example, if you have an event called “Coffee with Friends,” the app might automatically add a coffee cup flair to the event.
These updates are part of Google’s ongoing efforts to improve its apps and make them more user-friendly. By adding features like spam filtering and visual enhancements, Google is making it easier for users to stay organized and focused.
