minus-squarem-p{3}linkfedilinkEnglish33•1 year agoI’ll just wait for tracker using the Find My network to come out. At least it’s going to be more universal and not Samsung-specific.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish8•1 year agoThey already are, at least here in the UK. I’ve got a bunch of Eufy tags, work great.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•1 year agoAre you sure? The only brand Google mentioned making devices that supported their new Find my Device network was Pebblebee and Chipolo. I have a Chipolo One tag but it won’t be compatible with the new Find my Device network. https://9to5google.com/2023/05/10/android-find-my-device-trackers/
minus-squarem-p{3}linkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year agoWould be nice if they could be flashed with a different firmware, so that you could convert it to Google Find My network to avoid ewaste.
minus-square@babboalinkEnglish3•1 year agoChipolo tags delayed and no update from the company since July 27. Very close to requesting a refund at this point.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoAs far as I know. We’re waiting on Apple to update iOS to locate rogue trackers. Google was holding off on the summer release until this was done. I can’t imagine Apple will rush to get this done to slow the release of a competitors product.
minus-squareMidnittelinkfedilink2•1 year agoThey will also support Tile (though it will probably require new devices). Tile is also confirmed to be working on support for Android’s Find My Device network, but there’s no sign of new hardware just yet.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•1 year ago Eufy tags I thought they didn’t support android?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoSorry, I’ve just discovered from this thread that apparently Google has its own Find My! I was referring to Apple’s, sorry about that.
minus-squarem-p{3}linkfedilinkEnglish7•1 year agoAny phone with Google Play services will work with them, so yes?
