Google's version of the AirTag is coming: The Google Pixel Tag.

The Google Pixel Tag uses Google's Find Hub network to help you find your belongings, like your wallet or suitcase. It can be used with Android devices running Android 9 or newer; connect it to your device, name it, and even share it with up to 10 people.

You can see your tagged items on the map within the Find Hub app. If you lose something, you can ring it if it's within Bluetooth range, and it'll play a sound through its built-in speaker. Apparently, it'll have precise location data thanks to Ultra-Wideband with Bluetooth Channel Sounding, so you can recover your item even if it's in a nook or cranny.

And if you leave your keys or wallet (or pet?) behind, or are about to, you'll get an alert. You'll also get an alert if an unknown tag is with you. Should your tagged item be out of range, Find Hub will tap into a network of over one billion Android devices to find it, according to Google's press release.

The Google Pixel Tag is made of stainless steel and has a battery life of up to one year (which is similar to the AirTag). At under two inches long, 0.2 inches thick, and weighing 0.4 ounces, it won't add bulk to your valuables. It retails for $29 for one or $99 for a 4-pack. It releases on Nov. 11.
