How to enable Enhanced Protection in Google Messages

Google is in the process of implementing a new feature called "Enhanced Protection" in its Messages app. This feature, expected to launch later this month, aims to provide users with additional options in the "Protections & Safety" settings. As this new feature is introduced, the "Spam protection" toggle is likely to be removed.

## Why it matters The addition of Enhanced Protection is a significant step in the fight against spam and scams in messaging. With the growing number of fraud attempts via text messages, this update could provide users with greater peace of mind and control over their messaging experience.

## What we know The new Enhanced Protection feature is part of a series of anti-scam features that Google announced last week. Although the exact launch date has not yet been confirmed, it is expected to be available soon. The company has already begun making changes to the user interface of the Messages app, indicating that the implementation is underway.

## What is still unclear Despite the anticipation for Enhanced Protection to roll out soon, all specific functionalities it will include have not yet been detailed. Users will have to wait for its launch to fully understand the impact on their experience.
