Google is finally ready to flip the switch on precise UWB Find Hub tracking
Ultra-wideband turns Google's Find Hub into a serious tracker, starting with Moto Tag support.

- Android’s newly renamed Find Hub is getting UWB support before the end of May.
- UWB allows much more precise tracking than Bluetooth alone.
- To take advantage, you’ll need a UWB-compatible phone, and a UWB tracker like the Moto Tag.
Android’s Find My Device app offers an easy way to locate misplaced hardware, and right now it’s in the middle of a big rebrand, as Google capitalizes on the recent addition of people-tracking to transform it into the Find Hub. But more than just finding a fitting new name for the service, Google’s also sharing word of some powerful new functionality coming to the Find Hub — including one long-overdue upgrade that promises to deliver the most precise tracking yet.
When it comes to the technology we use to track down and locate missing devices, Bluetooth works in a pinch, but for super-precise radar-like tracking, we have to turn to ultra-wideband (UWB) connectivity. Samsung has supported UWB through its SmartTag2, but we’ve been waiting for Google to bring the same support to its own tracking solution. We’ve recently spotted development on Find My Device headed in this direction, and today Google finally announces how this support is landing.
