Google’s October 12 release notes for Play services v26.40 state that Find Hub installation is blocked and associated functionality removed on Googlebook. This applies to Aluminium-based Googlebooks, not the entire Find Hub service on Android phones. Reporting also mentions laptop-location problems experienced by some users, but Google has not explained the removal or a return schedule. Whether this is a temporary withdrawal of an unfinished feature or a permanent support change remains unconfirmed.
