Google may launch ‘Pixel Tag’ item tracker
9to5Google has obtained an image of what appears to be a “Google Pixel Tag,” suggesting the company is developing an AirTag-like item tracker with a speaker and Find My Device support.
Google appears to be working on an item tracker that could rival Apple’s AirTag. 9to5Google obtained an image of a device called “Google Pixel Tag,” which has a small oval shape. The publication also linked to a Slovenian store listing describing the Pixel Tag as an item tracker with a speaker that uses Google’s Find My Device network, now rebranded as Find Hub.
The Pixel Tag has surfaced shortly before Google’s planned hardware event on August 12. Google has already shown teases for the Pixel 11 lineup, and leaks have also emerged for a new foldable, smartwatch, and earbuds. Earlier this month, 9to5Google noted that early Pixel 11 listings mentioned a Google Pixel Tag, but pointed out that “no such tracker exists right now.”
The machine-translated listing describes the Pixel Tag as a smart tracker that helps users quickly and reliably find lost items through the secure Find My Device network. It is compact, lightweight, and durable, and can be discreetly attached to important belongings. Users can check the exact location of their items via smartphone. The tracker has a loud speaker for nearby searches and is designed with privacy and personal data protection in mind.
Google did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
