Improved Smart Anti-Tracking
With Samsung Internet Browser 17 Beta, the company released an AI-powered Smart Anti-tracking feature. After that, the company improved this functionality with Beta 18.0. Now, the company is enhancing the Smart Anti-tracking feature more by letting it detect domains that collude with classified trackers and immediately apply for protection.

Enhanced Phishing Detection
The improved look-alike phishing detection is designed to warn users not to reveal personal information to malicious actors when they inadvertently navigate to a site they think is a trusted site but a fraudulent site with a similar URL.
New Privacy Info Feature
Now, users easily check their tracking protection with a new privacy Info feature. By clicking on the lock icon in the address bar, users can verify how secure their connection to a website is. You can get the information on how many trackers are blocked, check and delete cookies and allow for location, camera and microphone immediately.
Improved Navigation
Samsung Internet navigation became easier in version 18.0, which introduced text extraction from web images and a bottom toolbar for the first time in the Galaxy Z Fold series. Now, Samsung Internet 19.0 Beta is making web browsing more comfortable.
The new beta allows for add-on work in Secret Mode, so users don’t have to select between privacy and customized experiences. You can easily turn on and off these features from the Add-ons menu.
Users of Samsung Internet can sync users’ bookmarks between PC PC Chrome browser and Samsung Internet mobile browsers by using Samsung Internet’s Chrome Extension. After testing the beta build, Samsung will release Internet 19.0 stable in 4Q 2022.
WhatsApp has pushed a new beta update for Android users, which brings a camera shortcut directly to the gallery sheet to make it easier to access the camera while sending photos or videos. The fresh beta update arrives with version 2.24.24.23, available through the Google Play Beta Program.
Previously, WhatsApp improved the way users send photo and video albums. With that, users can select multiple photos and videos at once, and add captions to entire albums to make it simpler to share media with context.
The new update is adding even more improvements. The camera shortcut, which used to be in the chat bar, is now available directly inside the gallery sheet. It saves time and makes it easier to capture something new without navigating through multiple steps.
Now, when you’re selecting photos or videos to send, you can quickly switch to the camera without leaving the gallery. This new change might feel like an extra step for some users who were used to accessing the camera with a single tap from the chat bar. However, the update aims to combine both the camera and gallery functions into one place.
Notably, not all users will see this new camera shortcut. If you still have the camera shortcut in the chat bar, you won’t see the one in the gallery sheet. This is to avoid clutter and make the app more organized.
This feature is currently available to a limited number of beta testers, and it will be rolled out to more users in the coming days or weeks.
Google Messages introduces a new Backup and Restore feature to make it easier for users to back up and restore their text messages, media, and settings directly within the app. This feature’s strings have been spotted in the Google Messages 20241118_02_RC00 beta version.
Currently, Android users back up their messages through Google One at the system level, but this new update lets users manage backups from within Google Messages itself.
The backup system will offer end-to-end encryption, ensuring that your messages are fully secured. Only you will be able to access the backup, with protection provided by your device’s screen lock.
When signing into the app on a new device, your conversations will automatically restore, providing a seamless transition. However, some devices without a screen lock may not be eligible for encrypted backups.
The backup feature is closely associated with your Google Account and Google One storage, which means you’ll need some extra storage space for backups. While users can choose to turn off backups at any time. Turning off the backup will permanently delete your conversations from your Google Account, although they will still be on your device.
You can also choose to back up media only over Wi-Fi, which can help save mobile data. Additionally, Google Messages will allow you to sync messages across different devices as long as you’re signed into your Google Account.
Aside from this, Google Messages recently rolled out the “Double tap heart ‘feature for Android users. This makes it easier to send a red heart emoji in response to messages.
