It locates devices indoors via Wi-Fi signal strength
Hardware support hasn’t yet rolled out
Google Maps works great when you need to get from point A to point B outdoors, but what about when you’re trying to get from one end of a shopping mall to another? The latest Android 15 update should make that kind of indoor navigation more straightforward.
As spotted by Android Authority, Android 15 now supports a new location technology known as Wi-Fi Ranging: it uses the varying strength of signals from Wi-Fi access points to figure out whereabouts you are.
