This Chipotle blog entry describes things the best as far as I know: https://chipolo.net/en/blogs/chipolo-point-delay-and-google-find-my-device-app-update
Basically, in December, Google and Apple (and others?) came up with a standard on discovering trackers that are being used to stalk people. Because of the large iOS install base, Google has elected to wait for Apple to roll out that feature on iPhones before enabling the tracking device support on Android.
That typo made me wonder why might Chipotle had some sort of inside scoop at Google. Like maybe there's a Chipotle where all the Google engineers eat lunch, and one of them was trying to impress the person working at the counter by sharing product development updates.
Considering the almost weekly top secret document leaks on the war thunder forum, that wouldn't be surprising if it was real.
Thanks for that, although the lack of an ETA is disappointing.
Google has elected to wait for Apple to roll out that feature on iPhones before enabling the tracking device support on Android.
Letting your main competitor decide when you can launch a product sounds absolutely moronic.
I get the idea, but Apple had no such qualms about android users being stalked when they launched airtags.
Watch Apple never release.
I pre-ordered Chipotle last July. I hope it hasn't gone bad by now waiting on Google and Apple..
