Hi Damien and Abner, can we please have a video podcast too?

"You'll need an iPhone to set it up" answered yourself, there

[@Bolt_Up562]

I have the perfect name for the new Pixel air tag equivalent. How about G-Spot?

[@darrenl.johnson]

😂😂😂😂

[@Bhair206]

I can't find it 😢

It seems counterintuitive to limit the network's rollout to the US and Canada. The primary benefit of this network is its ability to help locate lost items, but that advantage is severely hampered when traveling internationally. I get that 'gradual rollout' is necessary, but the lack of a timeline makes the feature less compelling.

Another great episode 😊

It has to be rechargeable for me, replacing batteries is easy but just feels unnecessary when all my other tech is rechargeable

[@joshualebowitz]

Don’t really understand the rollout of this product/network. Is Chipolo the main partner here? Will Google have their own version?

[@fiddlefiver]

They should announce it at Google IO if not Google would miss out on an opportunity

[@fiddlefiver]

Pixel pebbles 😂

[@mford1974]

They should have bought tile.....case closed...😊

It's weird you spent 1 hour with few seconds talking about Samsung smart tag, it's the best tracker in the business if you have Samsung phone( and let's be honest most people have Samsung) you can use the smart thing app to locate it with all these galaxy devices pinging, it has many features like controlling smart home and I can't believe you didn't know that it has UWB and uses the same exact location like Apple but better bcz it uses the camera to locate the tag, the key chain ,the replaceable battery, the ip67 waterproof, I was hoping you guys will discuss if Samsung after this will change Smart thing to support Google find my network or will they update their tags instead of releasing new ones, I missed mine when I got a Pixel but I'm excited now for these news
