Samsung Electronics has launched a mobile application that allows users to easily locate their misplaced or stolen smart devices.
Samsung Electronics today announced the launch of ‘SmartThings Find’, a new service that helps users quickly and easily locate Galaxy devices — smartphones, tablets, smartwatches and earbuds. SmartThings Find is now available on Samsung’s Galaxy devices globally after the service was tested by 6 million users in South Korea, the USA and the UK for about two months, the company said in a press statement. Samsung will provide a new software update for the service on Galaxy smartphones and tablets running Android 8 or later, Galaxy Watch smartwatches powered by Tizen 5.5 or above, and Galaxy Buds Plus and Galaxy Buds Live wireless earbuds. After completing a quick registration process, SmartThings users can easily find their Galaxy devices – from smartphones, tablets and smartwatches, down to each individual earbud. The app uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and ultra-wideband (UWB) technologies to help people find their Galaxy products.
