Eufy Confirms Find My Device Bluetooth Trackers Are Still in the Works

Eufy has reached out to clarify the status of its delayed Find My Device-compatible Bluetooth trackers. Despite speculation, the company confirmed that the trackers have not been canceled and are currently undergoing testing. Here’s the full statement from Eufy:

“The Google/FMD versions of eufy SmartTrack devices have not been canceled. External user testing is currently going on and we should have an update on commercial/retail availability of these devices by mid-February.”


What’s Going On With Eufy’s Trackers?

Last year, when Google launched its revamped Find My Device network, three companies—Chipolo, Pebblebee, and Eufy—announced plans to release compatible Bluetooth trackers. While Chipolo and Pebblebee have already launched their products, Eufy’s trackers are still nowhere to be seen.

Eufy initially announced plans to release two Find My Device-compatible trackers (SmartTrack Link and SmartTrack Card) by June 2024. However, after missing that deadline, the company quietly updated its announcement to push the release to late 2024. Now, it seems Eufy has removed the blog post entirely, raising doubts about the project’s future.

If you try to visit Eufy’s original announcement blog, you’ll be redirected to the company’s homepage. According to 9to5Google, the post disappeared sometime in December. This is concerning, as Eufy typically used the blog to share updates on its Find My Device trackers.


Eufy’s Silence Fuels Speculation

When reached for comment, a spokesperson for Eufy told Android Authority, “the company has no official news to share at the moment.” This vague response, combined with the deleted blog post, had many wondering if Eufy might be scrapping the project altogether.

If true, it would be disappointing for consumers looking for a budget-friendly alternative to existing Bluetooth trackers. Eufy’s SmartTrack devices often retail for under $20, significantly cheaper than competitors like Motorola ($29.99), Pebblebee ($34.99), and Chipolo ($22).

For now, it seems we’ll have to wait until mid-February for an official update from Eufy. Stay tuned for more developments.
