Hello @Denise2960, 

Welcome!

  • No, the feature is called Safe Messaging. 
  • On devices running Android 4.4, a shorter version of Safe Messaging is available as the Text Anti-Phishing feature.
  • Both Safe Messaging & Text Anti-Phishing feature are available for KIS Premium, not Free. 
  • ⚠Safe Messaging only blocks links in Google Chrome. To protect yourself from dangerous links in instant messages, set Google Chrome as your default browser.

 

 

 

 

If you have any further questions please post back?

Thank you🙏
