Android 15 will expand its 'Find my device's capabilities

One of the biggest complaints about Android phones is the relatively limited scope of their Find My Device network compared to Apple. Android phones currently allow devices to ping off each other using Bluetooth to help locate missing or lost phones. However, most devices will only be able to contribute when powered on.
However, the Android 15 update aims to introduce Powered Off Finding API, which allows the device to store pre-computed Bluetooth beacons in the memory of the Bluetooth controller.
