Android Nexus and Android One phones can now screen spam calls - CNET

Google has announced a new update to Nexus and Android One devices running the Android operating system. As an extension to Android's caller identification, which tells you who's calling even if the number isn't already in your phone, these devices will now be able to tell you when you're receiving a call from or making a call to a suspected spam caller.

"Spam callers be gone! Today, we're beginning to update your Google Phone app with spam protection on Nexus and Android One devices to wa you about potential spam callers and give you the ability to block and report these numbers," a post on Google + reads. "If you already have Caller ID tued on, spam protection will be available on your phone once your app updates to the latest version."

The update will be rolling out over the coming days. You can find out how to tu on spam protection once you have the update on the Google Nexus support page here.
