Celebrating My Accounts first birthday with improvements and new controls
ABOUT ZENFONE , Celebrating My Accounts first birthday with improvements and new controls, A year ago today, we launched My Account, a hub that gives you quick access to controls for safeguarding your data and protecting your privacy on Google. My Account puts privacy and security tools in one place, including long-standing features like Ads Settings and newer ones like the Privacy and Security Checkups. Collectively, these tools make it easy for you to control your privacy and security from any device.
In the past year, more than one billion people around the world have used My Account. Now, on the first anniversary of its launch, were excited to introduce three new features to easily access your controls and protect your data.
A helping hand when you lose your phone
We entrust our phones with some of our most personal data: texts from loved ones, family photos, work emails, bank account information, and more. In the wrong hands, that data could cause trouble. Unfortunately, millions of phones are stolen every year in the U.S. alone, and countless more are lost in taxis, cafes, and couch cushions around the world. But when your phone goes missing, it�s not always easy to figure out where to start, who to call, or how to keep your information safe.
Find your phone is a new feature that will help you if your phone is ever lost or stolen. In a few simple steps, you can not only locate your phone, but also lock and call it, secure your account, leave a callback number on the screen, and more. The feature can be used to find lost Android and iOS devices, and soon, you�ll also be able to access it by searching Google for �I lost my phone.�
People are increasingly using their voices to navigate apps and services�for example, mobile voice searches on Google have tripled in the past two years. So, we�re making it easier to get to My Account just by using your voice. In the latest Google app you can simply say, �Ok Google, show me my Google account,� and we�ll take you right there. This is available today in English, with other languages coming soon.
