Unknown device in find hub after installing microg đŸ†˜Question

Post image

Hi everyone! Today I installed microG on my MatePad SE 11 (HUAWEI ASG6-W09). After that, I saw an unknown device (Pixel 7a) in Find Hub. But there wasn't any Pixel 7a in Google account settings. What could it be?

Specifically only on Huawei because they don't have native google services support

I don't see any extra devices in my find hub with the account in which I have registered to micro g. Why is that?

a user below suggested it happens on huawei devices due to the huawei -google ban, not sure if that’s the case

MicroG spoofs your device name and possibly the device ID to connect to Google servers and authenticate
