Google could be working on device-locating network functionality similar to Apple's ‘Find My' network. A string of code associated to a network for finding Android devices has been reportedly found in the latest version of Google Play Services app.
The description for the first code states, “Allows your phone to help locate your and other people's devices” while the description for the second code states “Find My Device network.” This clearly indicates to a find my device network system for Android similar to Apple's own Find My service.
As of now, Google offers a Google Find My Device app that lets you located devices that are signed into your Google account. With the extended network functionality as seen in code, users will be able to help find other Android devices signed into different accounts.
