Ironically, one of the reason Google's offerings are (were?) worse is because Google prioritized privacy and required pings from multiple phones to count a tracker as seen.

I don't know.... Phones are not identified to the tracker owner and trackers are not identified to phone owner.

But basically this means that only items in the high traffic areas can be found.
