After purchasing one of the best Android phones, we just hope it never gets stolen or misplaced. Thinking ahead, Google introduced the Find My Device service many moons ago, allowing you to locate lost devices and remotely wipe them, as long as they are powered on. Thieves were quick to catch on, immediately switching off stolen gear. Borrowing a trick from Apple’s Find My system, Google is now developing the Find My Device network, which should allow geolocation, even when your phone or tablet is switched off. After months of rumors, we have our first look at the setup process for the feature.
We’ve been hearing of the Find My Device network’s development since 2021. Although the feature has still not launched, the settings page allowing you to define your level of involvement in the network came to light last month. Now, Android expert Mishaal Rahman has revealed what enrolling a phone in the Find My Device network could look like.
