In March, Google updated the app find my device with a new tab called “people.” It is the sample of the importance that Google wants to give the possibility of quickly finding the closest people such as family or children when they are in the nursery or at school. Now his name has changed Find Hub or Google Locator.
Last week Google announced the “rebranding” of “Find My Device” to “Find Hub” and is already arriving in version 3.1.337-2 of the app on Android. The objective is to show that this application is not only in that we find the lost device, but also serve to Locate the family and friends.
There is another important point in the update of the app, and it is that The “beta” label disappears of the “People” tab just two months after the tests carried out for this important renewal of an app that already gives rise to another experience, and without knowing for sure the idea that Google has about its future.
In this tab the contacts appearwhether friends or family, who have granted permission to share their location in real time, as if it were the device we have lost. With the feeling that we will always have this application with which to locate our parents or simply children when they are at school. It is here where this new experience of the app is called Find Hub.
In the update of a few hours ago Another change is included. When you click on the adjustments in the account menu, it now takes us to a list with “Find Hub” and “Google Location Sharing”. Previously, the app took users immediately to another system of the system, but now it is direct to that list to organize well what will be the new experience of locating contacts with an Android mobile or a pixel.
