I'm very excited about this. This was one of the things that really bothered me when I switched from the iPhone to my Pixel 7 Pro. I ended up buying a Tile, but ended up disappointed because they put the most basic features behind a paywall. These native Find-my Trackers seems to solve that issue entirely.

Limited to US and Canada this late in the game is really dissapointing.

I live in Mexico and it works for me, I have my pixel 6 and Google buds on my list

[CollinsDynasty]

I hope Googles version on tags are coming out soon 🙏

[Nitram]

Looking forward to getting it in Germany ASAP!

Everything you need to know EXCEPT how to use it, aside from that it tells you all the things it will eventually do, but not how.

I would love the “unknown tracker alert” explained a bit more… Let’s say I have a tracker in my backpack. The backpack gets stolen. The thief takes it home. The thief gets notified on his android phone that there’s an unknown tracker (because it’s not associated with his phone/google account) somewhere near him? Backpack and it’s content lost forever…

Would be sweet if I could find my Pixel 6 even while off.

You finally fix your mic issue, I can hear you clear now, thank you.

[jva]

I needed to know how to actually use this feature, LOL !

[paulfarrant]

Yet another Google feature that is USA only. It's frustrating seeing all these videos showing new features and then realising that we will never get them, especially when the video presenter is English

[DerMilko]

Chipolo Plans to send the first chipolo one at the 27. May, in Germany. So I think that is a good indicator when Google plans to launch the network in Germany

[Atreyu]

If phones have to OPT IN to be a part of the network, will they not help report other lost devices? If so, that is going to severly limit the whole network.

Whats about the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag? Will it also be usable with Android phones (which are not Samsung)?

[hmlchy]

Will it work with devices without UWB? It needs to work on all the android devices out there, maybe over android 10, to make it truly useful.

[juanferreras]

Is it available in Europe? No? What a shame.

[andreipop]

Why wouldn't anyone be interested? The world except the US mostly uses Android, so people will enjoy this.

[lnwf]

Oh, if it's not on by default people won't use it on Android phones. I had to search for it on my fold 5, update the app and what not. Damn it. Might not work as great as I thought it would.

[jasontholen]

So if no one gives permission for their phone to use it, will it actually work?

[Jokamutta]

Finally other smartphones other than Samsung can have a tracker tag :)
