Google’s location tracking for Android devices could soon work beyond the network regions and help people avoid getting stranded.
Location tracking via satellite could be a useful addition
Google is going to make its Find device network work better with a new upgrade coming in the next few months. The company rebranded the tool to Find Hub earlier this year and soon it will work even without any Wi-Fi or network in the region. Yes, Google is highly expected to offer satellite support for its device location tracking feature and it should be rolling out for everyone in the near future.
But the details about the upgraded tool have been spotted recently and highlighted in a report as well. Satellite tracking makes these features extremely useful, especially when people head over to no-network areas.
Google Find Hub With Satellite Tracking: How It Might Work
Find Hub is essentially the same Find my device network in a rebranded fashion from Google. The satellite upgrade has been mentioned by Android Authority that has found some clues about its usability and purpose. It does seem like Google could have it available for everyone soon.
Find Hub via satellite is going to help you in remote places and allow others to know your position, especially if you get stranded somewhere without a mobile network. Google had recently made Find My work offline and this will also be equally useful for many users. The report says the satellite feature will not give you immediate position but ping the point of the device every 15 minutes.
It also is going to work when the user enables it from the settings and the feature will work in the background, so that others don’t know how the tracking is still active to keep their location private. Satellite-based services are not cheap. We are keen to see if Google plans to limit its support to the premium devices (or just Pixels for now) and eventually make it a paid feature.
The Pixel 10 series is launching next week and it does seem quite premature to assume Google could share something about the new updates at the event, but going by the tests being done at the code level on the Find Hub app, its public availability might be not far away now.
