I'm very excited about this. This was one of the things that really bothered me when I switched from the iPhone to my Pixel 7 Pro. I ended up buying a Tile, but ended up disappointed because they put the most basic features behind a paywall. These native Find-my Trackers seems to solve that issue entirely.

I would love the “unknown tracker alert” explained a bit more… Let’s say I have a tracker in my backpack. The backpack gets stolen. The thief takes it home. The thief gets notified on his android phone that there’s an unknown tracker (because it’s not associated with his phone/google account) somewhere near him? Backpack and it’s content lost forever…

Its important for those buying trackers know that for now this won't work. Once FMD becomes correctly operational im sure it will work but if you're wanting one right now i would wait. See if you can find a review of someone testing this and it working away from their own device and reporting from FMD the location i will be very surprised as i haven't found one person in a forum or KZbin with this thing working other than with their own Bluetooth from their own device.
