Hi,

 

I have an update on this - turns out there may be a way. Have a look at this page: https://developers.google.com/nearby/fast-pair/specifications/extensions/fmdn 

 

Find My Device network support is now available in the main branch of nRF Connect SDK. It can be accessed through nRF Connect for VS Code (bottom of the list when installing a new SDK). 
Creating devices for the Find My Device network requires your idea to be registered with and approved by Google. 
To learn more about Google's Find My Device network, visit their developer pages to read the specifications and submit the registration form to register your new device idea.

Hi Alexhuang,

 

I don't believe there is an open program for developers/hardware manufactures to add products to Google's Find my.  If that changes it will almost certainly be announced on the developer blog here: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/ so keep an look out on there.

I think that Google should authorize 3rd party to produce Google Find My product like Apple. it is not enough that only Google develop and promote such product by themselves. 

We do not find righ contact entrance to Google and inquiry them.

All (I think) Google services have a feedback option where you can post suggestions and bugs etc. For this head to https://www.google.com/android/find/ and top right of the page is the feedback button. You can also find a list of Google contacts here: https://about.google/contact-google/
