Google Pixel Tag joins the Find Hub network

Google introduced Pixel Tag on 12 August as its first item finder, built to work with the Find Hub network. The company says the stainless-steel tracker is IP67 rated, has a speaker and runs for up to a year on its battery. Google listed it at $29, with a four-pack priced at $99, and scheduled retail availability for 11 November.

Pixel Tag expands Google’s own hardware into a category already served by third-party Find Hub-compatible trackers. Location depends on nearby participating Android devices and the network’s privacy protections; it is not a live GPS beacon. Google says a user can share a tracked item with trusted contacts.
