Aha. It appears Google's release of android has that sort of functionality baked in. I wasn't aware of that.
Still, it seems out of scope for an operating system.
It looks like the EFF recommends some app called "AirGuard"- even over using the built in scanners.
I haven't really dug into this, but AirGuards github page claims the app scans periodically and will give you a notification on suspicious results.
