Keep the peace in your group chats with Google Messages’ new feature to hide texts from blocked contacts

Google Messages, a leading messaging app with over 1 billion monthly active users worldwide, continues to enhance user experience by introducing new features regularly. One of the latest anticipated updates includes the ability to hide messages from blocked contacts within the app. Here’s what you need to know about this useful feature:

– The newest beta version of Google Messages will now hide messages from blocked contacts, even in group chats. This means that if you have blocked someone, their messages will no longer appear in any group chat you are part of.
– Previously, while blocked contacts were unable to send you texts in one-on-one conversations, their messages remained visible in group chats. With this update, blocked contacts will not be able to communicate with you at all within group settings.
– Users will receive a pop-up notification informing them that they might miss some messages in a group chat due to the presence of blocked contacts. This notification serves as a reminder of the privacy and control users have over their messaging experience.
– It’s important to note that while you won’t see messages from blocked contacts in group chats, those contacts may still be able to see your messages. This current functionality may change as Google continues to refine the feature based on user feedback.

As of now, this feature is only available for beta users. There is no specific timeline for when it will be rolled out to all users, so be sure to stay updated for further announcements. Keep an eye out for this convenient addition that enhances privacy and ensures a more seamless messaging experience on Google Messages!
