Following the rebrand this year, the Find Hub app has reached over 1 billion downloads on Google Play.

The Android app just crossed the 1,000,000,000+ downloads milestone, with com.google.android.apps.adm first released on December 11, 2013. The app debuted as “Android Device Manager” before becoming “Find My Device” in 2017. In July of 2024, it hit 500 million downloads. 

Since then, Google introduced location sharing functionality that’s powered by Maps. It’s available in a new “People” tab. The Find Hub rebrand was announced ahead of I/O 2025 this May. For Android 16, the app got Material 3 Expressive tweaks in August, with google.com/android/find/ also fully up-to-date.
