- Google appears to be working on a home screen shortcut for users who are sharing their location with you in Find Hub.
- Right now, Google Maps already offers similar functionality.
- Bringing the option to the Find Hub reflects Google’s consolidation of tracking tools.
Big things are in the works right now for the Find Hub on Android. Already this year we’ve seen it pick up this new name and add support for tracking people, and just over the past couple days we’ve spotted several new changes in the works, from tweaks to device enrollment to preparations for satellite-based location sharing. The fun is not stopping there, and we’ve got a few more Find Hub secrets we intend to spill.
Once again, we’re putting Google’s latest version 3.1.399-3 release of the Find Hub under the microscope. We just looked at how the app was working to make it easier to make sure your friends are sharing their locations back with you, but even once they do, you’d still have to keep pulling the app to check on where they’re at.
