Recently, Google has changed the inherited method “Find your phone” that some Android owners used to ring their lost or misplaced phone. In short, people should now use the New Hub Find experience.
For many years, the first result that people saw when looking for “finding my phone” was a link to a Google account page: myaccount.google.com/find-your-phone-guide. In general, this site is intended to edit personal information, to modify the parameters at the account level, etc.

However, it also housed the original experience “Finding your phone” which shows a list of your phones and tablets. When selecting a device, there was previously a “ring” button to read a sound on your phone.
In recent weeksPeople who used this heritage find that your phone method has noticed that the ring is no longer available. Instead, the only thing they see is a suggestion “Try to call your phone” which mentions the Hangouts in a fun way: “If you don’t remember your number, ask a friend or use contacts to search for it. You can also try to make a call using hangouts or a similar service. ”
This page concerns more the steps you need to take, as sign your Google account, if a device is really missing.
Google has deleted the Ring functionality here, but users can obtain the same capacity on the modern “Find Hub” website. In Google search results, the page is always entitled “Finding my device”, but Google.com/android/find/ It was otherwise updated with the brand change of this month.
Last week, Google deployed the Find the update of the HUB application To rename it to “search for the device” on Android. Likewise, the website presents the “devices” and “people” tabs.
Google should place a shortcut to the Find Hub website on the old page to avoid this confusion on which we have seen a lot of reports.
