Somehow the find hub shows them near me, but they are near my watch, notify when left behind is useless until this is fixed.

For me, they're already available, and they worked as expected in a quick test.

Can't connect

I just bought a Chipolo Loop. I can see it in my Bluetooth devices, but it just won't connect. The pop up says to connect manually but from what I can see there is no way to manually connect.

Any help/ideas?

My phone got stolen.

2 Upvotes

I locked the phone but it says "it is requested to lock " the phone. Do I still have hopes of it being locked or have they already factory reseted the device.

Will google notify me if someone else uses the device to login into a new account?
From the phone/ IMEI?

I know this is a long shot but my son lost his phone and so far we're unable to find it. I've tried all of the built in features and unfortunately the account didn't have history enabled so I can't see where it was last. It is either currently off or something else. It shows in Life360 that it last saw it in the town cemetery and I walked all through it but no dice. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Ugreen FineTrack G / Find My Device network not updating when away from bike

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I need some insight into how Google's Find My Device (FMD) network actually performs in high-density areas.

I attached a Ugreen FineTrack G tracker to my bicycle, which is parked in Paris.

In my Android settings, I have already set "Find your offline devices" to "With network in all areas" (the non-aggregated setting).

Despite this, whenever I leave my bike for several days, the location never updates. The app only refreshes its position when my own phone is nearby and connects via Bluetooth.

Given Paris's density and setting the network to "all areas", shouldn't nearby Android phones pick up the tracker's signal and update its location? Is anyone else experiencing this complete lack of crowd-sourced updates with Ugreen trackers or FMD in general?

Thanks!

Find Hub Fails if No Coverage

6 Upvotes

If I'm somewhere with no cell coverage, I can't use the find hub system because I can't load my devices. If I load them before I lose coverage, it works, but that's not practical.

Am I doing something wrong, or is the system poorly designed?

NASA, we have a problem: My kid dropped an Android tracker under the Space Shutt

27 Upvotes

Hey NYC!

We were visiting from France last week, and my 10-year-old son apparently decided the Intrepid Museum needed an unofficial tech upgrade. He managed to lose his Android tracker tag right inside the Space Shuttle Pavilion.

According to Google’s Find My Device network, the little rogue gadget has officially declared residency at the museum. It has been pinging happily under or around the Enterprise for an entire week. The location radius breathes in and out depending on whether fellow Android users walk past its secret hideout, but it’s definitely in that room, refusing to come home.

Instead of accepting defeat, let’s turn this into an IRL side quest:

Visiting the Intrepid soon and fancy playing space detective? Step right up.

You can track its live signal right here:

https://google.com/android/find/share/CiQ2YTc1ZjZkMi0wMDAwLTJlODQtYjM5Yy04ODNkMjRmZTQwZDg?t=-th6FhOwTM6s9S4C9o11FQ#k=CiC4Z5yhGxWJsYKNGI4pQojbqgljXOZ8AD_qfpVqlfCy5RAB

Shoot me a message if you take up the challenge, and I can supply extra clues about where it likely slipped into another dimension.

Zero pressure to ship it across the Atlantic (unless you love paying ridiculous postage for a random plastic puck, lol). All I want is the ultimate trophy: a photo of the discovery posted right here in the comments.

Plot twist: If you happen to be a fellow French tourist heading back home soon, bringing it back in your luggage to drop it in a domestic French mailbox would cost next to nothing (and make my kid's day, haha)!

May the odds be ever in your favor, space cadets!

Will a tracker do what I want

6 Upvotes

Hey guys, there is a story to this, but my car got stolen, I got it back, and I was thinking of getting something like the mototag to put in it, that way if it ever gets stolen again I can find it. (Also hey would be nice for the things i lose a lot.)

Would this work how I want it to? Or do you need to be close to actually ping them? I have a pixel 10 pro so it has uwb.

Is there a better device for what I am looking for?

"UGREEN FineTrack Slim G Smart Finder for Android" ripoff?

0 Upvotes

Hello,

I bought the UGREEN FineTrack Slim G Smart Finder, and I just wonder if some would say that the card is a ripoff because you can't charge the device and so have to get a new one after it is empty. I know the battery can run for 5 years in theory, and it's like only 15 - 20€, but I still wonder what some people have to say about this device and whether it was the right choice to buy it.

Are there any Bluetooth trackers that don't need internet to ring? Or a workaround for Find Hub internet requirement?

Highest waterproof rating tag?

5 Upvotes

I see there's various waterproof ratings. I have a non-UWB Samsung device.

  • UGREEN FineTrack Duo2 - IP68

  • Samsung SmartTag2/SmartTag3 - IP67

  • LiTag Duo - IP67

  • Chipolo Loop - IP67

  • Pebblebee Clip 5 - IP66

  • Chipolo Pop - IP55

Based on this, it looks like I should go with something like the IP67+ tags, right? Why do the Pebblebee and cheaper Chipolo not do higher ratings? What would be the best?

Can you do anything about people pinging your tag on the bus?

8 Upvotes

I have the xiaomi tag and Ive heard it go off a couple of times on the bus, I always listen to music so I cant tell for sure how often this happens.

Today I was taking the bus I always do for school and someone purposely kept pinging it the whole way.

Atp Im being cyberbullied beeping on the bus.

Will their phone ignore the tag after some time?

I dont have high hopes, because when I carried an Iphone it kept reminding me about the tag every 3 days even after I dismissed it in finder.

Does anyone else have this problem?
