As the official blog notes, the updated Call Screen feature now leverages Google Assistant to easily filter out detected robocalls before your phone even rings. It doesn't use Wi-Fi or data and works on the device.

Other improvements include improved video calls on Pixel 4 with new Duo features such as auto-framing and portrait focus. You can also turn a photo into a portrait on Pixel by blurring the background post-snap. (ANI)
