• One Redditor tested Google’s Find My Device network against Apple’s Find My Network by shipping an AirTag and a Pebblebee tracker to a different state and tracking the package through the respective apps.
  • The Pebblebee Tracker struggled to provide location updates, while Apple’s AirTag consistently updated throughout the journey.
  • Google’s Find My Device network is still nascent and opt-in, limiting its effectiveness compared to Apple’s Find My Network. Google is reportedly working on improving its network’s speed and reliability.

    Still annoyed that tile has not committed to making their devices compatible with this and rather want to push that life360 rubbish, which openly sells user data.

    People only really went with their product because something first party didn’t exist, now their service will get worse as people start adopting this over their service and they turn all their trackers into e-waste—because trackers without a good enough network are kind of useless
