Google to Launch Find My Device Network, Enhancing Security and Interoperability with Apple

Set for release on April 7 or 8, the network aims to improve device tracking and combat stalking through cross-platform collaboration.

Google is set to launch its Find My Device network for Android users on April 7 or 8, allowing them to locate offline devices and accessories.
The network, compatible with Apple's Find My network, aims to combat stalking by enabling users to detect nearby unknown trackers.
Google has taken steps to ensure the network's security, including the ability to locate devices offline or when switched off and mitigating misuse for harassment.
The rollout follows a year of development and collaboration with Apple to establish a cross-platform system for tracking protection.
Some Android users have already spotted the feature in the Google Play Services beta, indicating an imminent official launch.
