How Do I Enable Encryption on Google Messages?

Published in Messaging 1 min read

You can't directly enable encryption on Google Messages. Google Messages uses end-to-end encryption for all messages sent between Android users, automatically, without any settings to change.

Here's how it works:

  • Automatic Encryption: When you send a message to another Android user using Google Messages, the message is automatically encrypted. This means that only you and the recipient can read the message.
  • No Settings Required: You don't need to enable any special settings or features to use end-to-end encryption.
  • Secure Communication: End-to-end encryption ensures that your messages are protected from unauthorized access, even if your phone is lost or stolen.

Note: End-to-end encryption is only available for messages sent between Android users using Google Messages. Messages sent to users on other platforms, or using different messaging apps, may not be encrypted.
