"If users have added a Find Hub-compatible tracker tag to their luggage, they can now share a link with participating airlines to help identify the location of the luggage. In the Find Hub app, users can now select their lost item and tap "share item location" to generate a unique, secure URL. Then, users can copy the link and paste it into the airline's mobile app or website so the luggage can be tracked as it moves."
"Google says the link automatically expires after seven days, and that sharing is disabled once your phone detects the luggage is back with you. More than 10 global airlines, including Ajet, Air India, China Airlines, the Lufthansa Group (Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines, and Swiss International Airlines), Saudia Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines, and Turkish Airlines now accept Find Hub locations as part of their baggage recovery process."
"Android users can now share their locations directly in Google Messages, allowing people to see each other in real time on a map within the conversation. Google is also launching a feed of short-form videos in Google Play to make it easier for users to discover new apps and see how they work without having to leave the Google Play."
Google announced new Android features in its March Pixel Drop update, including enhanced luggage tracking through Find Hub. Users can generate secure, expiring links to share luggage locations with participating airlines, with automatic link expiration after seven days. Over 10 global airlines including Lufthansa Group, Air India, and Turkish Airlines now support this feature. Additional updates include real-time location sharing in Google Messages, a short-form video feed in Google Play for app discovery, personalized Calling Cards for incoming calls, and educational games for children ages 3-12 in Android Auto.
