New Delhi, July 1, 2025 — Google is bringing its much-anticipated AI-powered Call Screening feature to Pixel smartphones in India by mid‑2025, marking a significant upgrade for smartphone users seeking smarter call management.
Already popular in select global markets, the feature leverages Google’s on-device AI to screen incoming calls and respond to unknown numbers using a virtual assistant. It enables users to see why someone is calling in real-time before picking up—an ideal solution for avoiding spam or managing calls during busy schedules.
Why Is This a Big Move for Indian Smartphone Users?
The rollout comes as part of Google’s broader push to localize its Pixel experience for Indian users. According to sources, the feature will support English at launch, with regional language support expected in future updates.
Tech experts believe this move will not only enhance user productivity but also serve as a model for privacy-respecting AI applications on smartphones in India.
With increasing concerns over spam and robocalls, this AI-first feature may become a game changer in how Indians interact with phone calls.
