SmartThings Find is a service that helps you find your precious things easily and quickly. It allows you to find everything with the SmartThings Find device as well as Galaxy devices. With SmartThings Find, you can locate your missing device, even if it is offline. SmartThings users can opt in to securely use their Galaxy smartphone or tablet to help others locate their lost devices. Once a device has been offline, it produces a Bluetooth signal that can be received by other devices. If you report your device as lost via SmartThings Find, the signal can be detected by other Galaxy devices, which will then send the location data back to the SmartThings Find service.
All SmartThings Find user data is encrypted and securely protected, ensuring that the device’s location is not revealed to anyone except its owner.
