Google updates Find My Device app to show indoor layouts of large buildings

Google’s latest update to its Find My Device app might make it easier for you to locate your phone inside large buildings. And by large buildings, this includes complex spaces like malls, department stores, airports. Places Google has been recording layouts for through the years. However, the company didn’t list out which buildings the new feature applies to, so it’s going to be hit or miss if this will help you find your lost phone. But it could help narrow things down. Although, GPS can be wonky, so it still might not give you the most accurate reading. Aside from adding this feature though, the Find My Device app also now supports work profiles.
