Google’s Find Hub

What Google’s Find Hub does

Google’s Find Hub is a device and item-finding tool for Android users. It helps locate a misplaced phone, tablet or compatible Bluetooth accessory, including items that are not currently connected to Wi-Fi or mobile data. It is best suited to people who use several Android devices or want one place to manage lost-device protection.

Finding devices and nearby items

The app can show a device or tracked item on a map and can play a sound when it may be nearby. Its offline finding network uses signals from participating Android devices to help identify the location of disconnected hardware. Support for Wear OS also lets users look for a phone or other item from a compatible smartwatch.

Security and sharing tools

When a device cannot be recovered immediately, Find Hub can remotely lock it, display a contact message on its lock screen or erase its contents. The app also supports live location sharing with selected contacts, which can be useful for coordinating meetups or arranging safety check-ins. Location information and finding activity are designed around encrypted handling.
