- With the launch of the Pixel 10 series, both Find Hub and Google Maps now support satellite-based live location sharing.
- Pixel 10 users can send their live location even without cellular coverage, using Skylo’s satellite network.
- Google Maps, Find Hub, and Messages will also support live location sharing on the Pixel 10 with T-Mobile’s T-Satellite. Soon, other devices on T-Satellite will also get this feature on the above apps.
As part of the Find Hub rebrand announced at Google I/O, Google also announced its plans to expand Find Hub to support satellite connectivity. Google didn’t share more details then, but we recently spotted more details about how Find Hub’s satellite location sharing would work. With the launch of the Pixel 10 series, Find Hub now officially supports satellite-based location sharing, and so does Google Maps.
Skylo has announced an extension of its partnership with Google, bringing several satellite connectivity features to its new hardware lineup. Amongst these, we get standalone satellite connectivity on the Pixel Watch 4 LTE. The Pixel 10 also has the usual satellite connectivity features, but it has also become the first phone to get satellite-based location sharing in Android 16.
