Google has started work on a collective network of mobile devices for location. The idea is to create a resource that facilitates the location of a cell phone, tablet or the like. This is if the device has an Android operating system.

Google develops AI tool to help journalists in…
In June of this year, the first spoilers of the “Spot” project appeared. However, recently, new information was leaked, including a preview of the Google app.
As expected, the tool should be very similar to Apple's Buscar app. In this, a lost iPhone, for example, can be located even if it is turned off.
Google's service name is Find My Device. However, it is not yet known whether this will be the official title of the application. However, there is a Google app of the same name in the Play Store. Given this, it is speculated that the project may be just an update.
The tool that is under development will allow the marking of an Android device as missing. With that, the device starts to emit bluetooth signals. The signals are captured and retransmitted by the nearest devices. Thus, at some point, that device will be located and the owner will receive its location.
It is worth highlighting a different detail programmed by Google. The cell phone that helped locate the lost device will also be notified. With this, it is expected that more people will use the app to help other users.
The project is still in the experimental phase. Therefore, Google did not comment on the feature, as well as not revealing any official data. However, it is a fact that there is software under development with all the features mentioned here.
As with other “surprises” that have been discovered, this one should also go into effect soon. Users already expect to be able to use the Android finder in the coming months.
The feature would really be a hand in the wheel for virtually all users. Who never caught themselves forgetting their cell phone? Be it at a friend's house, at work, school, anyway. It would be really nice if there was a tool to help at this time.
