                Anonymous, 09 Apr 2024LoL 🤣🤣 Android users get into "Find my" game late... moreAndroid phones had this since 2013. Samsung improved on it to allow offline tracking of lost Samsung branded phones. Google realized Samsung's implementation was better and has improved it in 2024 - for ALL android phones, not Samsung only.

                                  This has issue . Old devices are visible which I no longer user also no option to remove them . It's a bad design same as how google device are managed .
