Another one of the new features Google is rolling out will let you know if you are using unsafe passwords. Chrome users will be familiar with Password Checkup, but now it's coming to Google's mobile operating system, too. It will work for Android devices running on Android 9 and above.

Google keeps track of hacks where passwords are exposed. And when you enter a password into an app with Autofill, it will warn you if your password was leaked. If you want to get more details about this upcoming feature, you can check this blog post.

One of the new features coming to Android Messages will help those who want to have better control over when their messages are sent. Similar to what Google offers in Gmail, the Android Messages app will support scheduled text messages.

The feature will be available for devices running on Android 7 or later. But Google hasn't specified when it will be available. When it does roll out, Google requires that you have the latest version of the Messages app to work.
