Google's new Find My Device network powered Chipolo Bluetooth trackers

For years, Apple users have enjoyed the convenience of AirTags, the tiny trackers that can be attached to valuables and easily located using the Find My network. Now, after a long wait, Android users can finally experience the same functionality with the arrival of the first AirTag-style trackers for Google’s rebooted Find My Device network.

Leading the charge are Chipolo and Pebblebee, two companies that have launched a range of tag and card trackers designed to work seamlessly with the new Find My Device app. The beauty of these trackers lies in their ability to transform even the most basic, non-connected items into trackable devices, allowing you to keep tabs on your valuables using your Android phone.

At the heart of this technology is Google’s Find My Device network, which anonymously harnesses Bluetooth proximity data from millions of Android devices worldwide (initially launching in the US and Canada). By tapping into this vast network, you can pinpoint the precise location of your lost item on a map within the Find My Device app. If the item is nearby, you can even trigger a sound or LED light flash to help you locate it more easily.

Chipolo has introduced two products to kick off the Android tracker lineup: the One Point tracker for keys, priced at $28, and the flatter Card Point tracker for $35. Both devices feature Fast Pair for quick connection to your Android phone and an IPX5 rating for protection against rain and drizzle. While the first batch has already sold out, the second batch is slated to ship on June 10.

Not to be outdone, Pebblebee has also unveiled its own lineup of Android trackers. The Clip ($30) and Card ($30) are designed for keeping track of keys and wallets, respectively. However, the standout product in Pebblebee’s lineup is the Tag ($35), a tiny tracker weighing just 6.5g and boasting up to eight months of battery life from its rechargeable battery. This sets it apart from Chipolo’s offerings, which feature replaceable batteries with a one-year lifespan.

These initial offerings are just the beginning, as Google has indicated that various other devices will soon support the Find My Device network. The Eufy SmartTrack Link and SmartTrack Card, as well as headphones from Sony WH-1000XM5 and JBL Tour Pro 2 and Tour One M2, will receive software updates to enable compatibility. Even Google’s own Pixel Buds Pro will be added to the network in the near future.

As with any technology that involves location tracking, privacy concerns are bound to arise. To address these concerns, the Find My Device network (and the new trackers) supports unwanted tracking alerts on both Android and iOS devices. This feature aims to curb the issues surrounding AirTag stalking that have been reported in recent times.

One notable absence from the initial lineup of Android trackers is Tile, a pioneering brand in the smartphone-based tracker market and an early rival to Apple’s AirTags and Samsung’s Galaxy SmartTags. Despite being listed as a potential partner when Google first announced the Find My Device network in 2023, Tile has currently shifted its focus elsewhere.

Following its acquisition by Life360 in 2021, Tile is now prioritizing the development of a “cross-platform solution that enables location-based finding of people, pets, and things.” While this decision means that Tile trackers won’t be available for Google’s Find My Device network at launch, the company hasn’t ruled out the possibility of future compatibility.
