  • Google Play Protect’s new Live Threat Detection feature is rolling out to Pixel devices.
  • The feature utilizes on-device AI models to identify harmful apps and alert users in real-time.
  • Live threat detection with real-time alerts is now available on Pixel 6 and newer models and will reach devices from other manufacturers in the coming months.
Google showcased a new Play Protect feature at I/O this May that utilized on-device AI models to protect users from sketchy apps. The Live Threat Detection feature is finally rolling out to Android devices, starting with Google’s Pixel lineup.

The new feature will analyze how apps interact with sensitive permissions and other apps and services to identify harmful apps. When it detects suspicious behavior, live threat detection will alert users in real time, prompting them to take immediate action to protect their devices. As you can see in the following image, the feature will deliver a notification when it finds an unsafe app with a link to Play Protect to help users remove the app from their devices.
