Are you sure? The only brand Google mentioned making devices that supported their new Find my Device network was Pebblebee and Chipolo.

I have a Chipolo One tag but it won't be compatible with the new Find my Device network.

Would be nice if they could be flashed with a different firmware, so that you could convert it to Google Find My network to avoid ewaste.

Chipolo tags delayed and no update from the company since July 27. Very close to requesting a refund at this point.

As far as I know. We're waiting on Apple to update iOS to locate rogue trackers. Google was holding off on the summer release until this was done. I can't imagine Apple will rush to get this done to slow the release of a competitors product.

They will also support Tile (though it will probably require new devices).

Tile is also confirmed to be working on support for Android’s Find My Device network, but there’s no sign of new hardware just yet.
