4. Operation
4.1 Locating Your Items
- Near You: If your lost item is nearby (e.g., within the house), the Find My Device app will show signal strength to help you pinpoint its exact location.
- Play Sound: If your N Tag is within wireless signal range, select it in the Google Find My Device app and tap "Play Sound". The N Tag will emit a loud ring to help you find it. Once located, tap "Stop Sound" to silence the device.
- Voice Commands: Use Google Assistant on your Google Home or Pixel Watch with commands like, "Hey Google, find my wallet" or "Hey Google, find my keys" for quick retrieval.
4.2 Worldwide Tracking (Community Finding)
For items lost far away, the Google Find My Device network assists. Billions of Android devices globally work together to help locate your N Tag, even if it's out of your personal Bluetooth range. This network anonymously relays the location of your N Tag to your Find My Device app.
4.3 Enable Lost Mode
If your item is lost, select the device in the Google Find My Device app and tap "Mark as lost". You will receive a notification when its location becomes available. You can also leave your contact information for anyone who finds your item to reach you.
4.4 Location Sharing
To share your N Tag's location, select the device in the Google Find My Device app and tap "Share Device". After the recipient confirms, the N Tag will appear on their Find My Device app list. Both accounts will receive location updates and can ring the device locally.
4.5 Unknown Tracker Alerts
The Find My Device network includes features to prevent unwanted tracking. If your Android phone detects an unfamiliar N Tag moving with you, you will receive a notification. You can then view the unknown device on a map, ring it to identify it by sound, or seek further assistance.
