"Google is rolling out an Android update that includes the ability to share the location of your missing luggage with an airline. It's similar to the luggage-tracking feature Apple brought to the iPhone, allowing you to view the location of your Find Hub tag or accessory on a map, and provide your airline with a link to the information they need to track it down."
"You can stop sharing your bag's location at any time, and links will expire after seven days. Google notes that it will encrypt your item's location and device location data, as well as disable tracking once your phone detects that your item has returned."
"You can now share your location with friends and family members directly in Google Messages. You can see a real-time view of each other's location within Google Messages, which could come in handy if you're meeting up with someone in a crowded area, like an airport or concert."
Google is introducing a luggage-tracking feature for Android that allows users to share their missing bag's location with airlines via Find Hub links. Multiple airlines including Air India, Turkish Airlines, and the Lufthansa Group currently support this feature, with Qantas and US-based carriers expected to follow. Users can stop sharing at any time, and links automatically expire after seven days. Google encrypts location data and disables tracking once items are recovered. Additionally, Android users can now share real-time locations with friends and family directly in Google Messages, and create custom Calling Cards similar to iOS Contact Posters.
