​@@techwithbenefits my application would be to track lost checked in flight luggage . Would it work for that?

Very comprehensive video. I bought 5 of the Smarttag 2's for our Africa trip; didn't have to track down any luggage but I could follow them through the various airport luggage systems on my Note 20 and Samsung tablet. Thanks.

Super helpful, I missed half these features when setting up my tags. Thank you!

Yes, please make a full depth video on these. Much appreciated!

Yes! Would like an extensive video on Smarthings. Another great video mate as usual.

I'm expecting delivery of a 4 pack next week and watched your video to get a better understanding of the functionality. Will be my first time using such a device so I could use all the help I can get. I'm 67 and have a moderate level of tech savvy. I think my biggest struggle will be navigating the SmartThings app if I'm being honest. Nice video...thanks for posting it.

Great tutorial, thank you 🙏🏽

Great video. I just received a SmartTag 2 for Christmas. I just activated it tonight. Please do an extensive breakdown video. Thank you.

just bought 2 one for each luggage bag and i love it

Awesome! I have the first-generation and when I looked to buy more i could not find them. Excited that they released a new version! Hope samsung or third party companies come out with other storage solutions to like put on bikes and other items. Great vid!

Thank you for the great video. I just got a Galaxy S24 Ultra and two SmartTags 2. Camera doesn't work on any of them, even being very close and without obstacles. I also don't get the message you get at 14:28 (You can use your phone's camera...). The camera icon seems to activate sometimes for a second but nothing shows on the screen. Any idea on what the issue might be?

Hi Do you need the Samsung passing by to have its Bluetooth mode activated for the tag to be located? Thanks

I bought the 4 pack and have used 2 so far. I'm going on a cross country trip and have never flown before, so I'm using one to keep track of my checked bag to make retrieval easier and the other on my backpack, should it go missing.

My son lost the tag one day, and I searched for it using the app. It told me it was nearby, and I went around in circles looking for it. Then it turned out it was located in the classroom, which was 3 storeys above me. This was the earlier version of the smart tag. I hope this version can also detect the exact location, including height distance.

It's not going to magically tell you what floor the thing is on (you need to move around) once you get within 30 to 50 m of it will actually connect to to the smarttag and give you a power signal bar With the smarttag+ (with its poor battery life and crashing/rebooting firmware) supported UWB but unfortunately Samsung is Still limiting UWB to plus and ultra models (UWB allows precise finding once under 20-30m) smarttag 2 has UWB by default (hopefully they fixed the firmware so it doesn't randomly reboot, it plays the battery startup sound when it reboots probably why the smarttag+ had poor battery life) all my smarttag 1s (not plus) have worked flawlessly and the 7 day history function in thr smartofthings app is super handy if it just gets stolen or unaware until later in the day or night so you know what direction to head in to get your item Back and where it has Been ( the Apple airtag only ever shows you it's last location, like when my mum binned one of my airtags it's last location was picked up passing the gate house at an incinerator power plant😅) Airtag has had UWB from the start, but lacks power signal level meter for signal level location (all you can do is make it chime unless you have a iPhone 11 or higher phone that supports UWB for precise finding but unfortunately you got to be within 20 to 30m)😂

HI there I wanted to ask how would this would for something thats long range like lets say I'm going to Japan and want to toss a smart tag in my luggage so I can see if they come back and where they are if they don't. Thanks for this super helpful video :)

Thanks for all these infos! I just bought a smarttagg2 and the thing I was wondering is, on the location on the map the tagg always says that it is at home, even when somebody carry it around outside. I wanted to put it on my cat but, I will never know where it is, shouldn't it be updating while in range ?

So it basically functions like an Apple Airtag, will it not send a signal if there are no samsung galaxy devices nearby? (I'm planning on using it on my car which is in isolated parking space)

is it compatible with pixel 3? specifically for uwb is this product compatible with cycle and as a gps tracker? please help. thanks a lot 😊

Nice! What is the max range on this?

I was thinking about adding this to my dogs collar. Any thoughts?

I bought my smart tag for an upcoming trip. Do I place the tag inside my suitcase or does it need to be outside?

Question does SmartTag2 can excess your private info on your phone when you connected or after link with your phone?

Thank you. Yes More on the Smart things app! I have it in my purse because mine was stolen before. Trying to learn how to use it!

Can you please tell me what the distance range is for this tag? I am thinking of using 1 of the ones I ordered for my dog, and I am worried if he is picked up, it may be that he is in a car and that could be quite far in a short period of time.Thank you for your help in advance.

Would you need to mwke eure your device that you track on meeds to be charged all the time to stay connected to your tags? I let my tablet die and now i have to reconnect my tags to the twblet but if im on a flight how do i do this if my bags are not with me?

What setting has to be on with the other person's device so it can help you locate what ever you lost.. or it just happens automatically

Just got my tag. Thanks for your hints. In application let's say your luggage is tagged on a bus, and someone took it, could left behind function work as the tag goes further away from your phone?

Just a UWB precise AR finding is Unavailable ( without uwb once you're in range of the actual smart tag it gives you a power level metre so you can work out if you're closer or further away from the tag) And to be clear you need the S21 Plus or ultra or higher phone for UWB precise AR finding (fold 2 nor note 20 or higher as well)

After configuring the device on smartthings, can I use tracking on another non-Samsung smartphone?

Very detailed and informative video. Highlighted all the interesting features!!

Hallo, have Anyone weak signal from Smart Tag 2 compared to the 1st gen Smart Tag? The 1st generation was caught by my mobile phone a meters away from the bike, where it was hidden in a frame, this new one won't connect even when I put the mobile phone close to the frame. Thanks for your opinions

Can i use this to track my trucks or lawn equipment?

will it pick up if people walking past are only using iphones? for example all bagge handlers at an airport have iphones will it still ping location

Let's say I put it together with my keys and then lose it (my keys), and someone picks it up.... So what if the person retrieving the keys doesn't have the smart things app or hasn't set up smart things? Will it still work?

Yes, please, on Smart Things video. You explain so well.

Great video man !!! First time watching your chanel. Like and subscribe, you deserve it !! 👍👍

Hi good video, but you did not comment on the instructions that come with the tag, I for one can not get the QR code to open on my Samsung s23 Ultra

You will find it's really just a useless toy. It's NOT going to bring you to your stolen car, purse, guitar... It ( might) show on a map where it was 2 hours ago, If your lucky, but don't expect REAL TIME or accurate location mapping.

I bought it, but I am quite disappointed. I have a Samsung S23, and the 'Search Nearby' feature doesn't show the direction; it only indicates how strong the signal is, which is also quite inaccurate. After some research, I found out that even Samsung's flagship S line doesn't include the UWB chip needed for that feature :( You need model S23+ or S23 Ultra.

hi! can you activate the ST2 with a non-Samsung Android phone?

In the "search nearby" feature, my display shows a dodgy 'hot cold' bar and no compass. Any reasons why that is the case?

Does it work with non samsung phone? Can I track the gps tracker on my android phone?

Do all Android devices participate in the Samsung Smart things find network or do these devices need the SmartThings app installed?

I wish they had a better anti theft mode. The problem with the anti-stalking mode is that it alerts the thieves that there is a smart tag on your bike. Unfortunately, it doesn't take long for criminals to catch up with advancements in technology.

I want to leave the tag in my car as i often 'lose' it in car parks...how do i do that? Do i need to mark it as 'at a safe place' each time before i leave the car so it doesn't think I've 'left it behind' by accident?

I'll say good video dude.

I want to attach this tag on my bike to track it in case of theft. But witht the feature "un known tag" how can insure not to have the tag noticed by the thief?

If any of those things are stolen & you or the police recover them because of timely info. from a Smart Tag, Please tell us all about it. But I won't hold my breath & I would suggest you not hold out any faith in this thing being good for that type of tracking! Test it! Give it to a friend to drive away with in their car. Pretend your $5000 guitar was stolen & you are going to find it with this thing. I wish you the best of luck!!!

Does this tag work without an internet connection. The original ones dont work without an Internet connection. No BT only mode.

Hi great video 👏 very informative, but just wanted to know if i use one to find my car in case of it being stolen is the theif able to detect my tag in the car as a tag thats close to him as "something being placed in his backpack " but it really being a tag tracking my car if all that makes sense?

@techwithbenefits

5 ай бұрын

It absolutely makes sense. Short answer is yes, you can use it to track a car, long answer, it would need to pass by a Samsung user to be "found" or the their would need to be a Samsung user. The unknown tag alert is a toggle that needs to be turned on in smartthings. I'm not sure the distance it needs to be to a phone for it to recognise it.

@@techwithbenefits Not sure the question (or setting) was understood. A guy steals Jim's car. Jim has previosly put a connected Smart Tag in it somewhere because he wants to track the car if it is stolen. The thief knows about Galaxy Smart Tags and he has a Smart Things app. This app has a feature, if he turns it on, that can tell him if a Smart tag that is not his, is in the vicinity ('has been put in his backpack'). He turns the feature on. Lo' there IS a foreign Smart Tag nearby, and he looks for and finds the Smart Tag in the car, smashes it, and drives the car off. No more trackng for Jim (what his goal was) but Jim may know the last place the Smart Tag was pinged, and that may be remotely helpful.

If this is lost somewhere say like if I have left it at a store. I want to call the store back and ask them if it is there. Can I ring the tag from my location to make it easier by producing the audible sound for the cashier to find it so that I won't have to make a blank trip, and can speed of the recovery process. I can see where it is on the map, but I just want to double check. Also, I read at the batteries are supposed to last for about a year, but soon after I got my through the mail, it keeps saying that the battery is low. Is this faulty, or is this just the battery that was installed before I got it? I didn't have to pull off the blue tag between the battery that comes when you initially order it, but I feel like I should not be getting a little battery indication so far and this is for the two that I have activated. tag 14:25

Thanks so much for the great video! I just ordered one because my brother's truck was stolen a few nights ago and he was able to find where it was parked in. The cops went and arrested the 2 guys that stole it!

It would be greatfully appreciated if you could please do a in depth assessment of smart things as I am new to this aswell I was going to get the smart tag 2 and put it on my dogs collar on which I was after knowing if my dog walker was walking my dog far enough for the walk it would be greatfully appreciated if you think this tag will be useful for me pal okedokee m8e cheers for the work you do greatfully appreciated and great viewing pal okedokee m8e cheers again pal 👍 😀 👌

@NeutronCollapse - Extracted the following from Samsung UK - "If your SmartTag is out of the 120-metre range of the BLE (Bluetooth low energy) connection, it will require the help of the Galaxy Find network to be located. The Galaxy Find network is made from other Galaxy device users that have agreed for their devices to be used as Find Nodes. Find Nodes receive the signal from lost SmartTags and send the location anonymously to the SmartThings server, allowing for you to find your SmartTag no matter how far away it is."

Can you use few different tags at once? Or only 1 TAG?

Can you use it for capture on selfie mod ? :D

I bought this so that in case my dog ever runs off, I can find him. I want to walk him off-lead and on wilderness hikes without worrying he stumbles upon an Antelope Jackrabbit and quickly disappears from sight. I am interested to test this with a seperate connected Samsung Galaxy s20fe. I am trying to make sure that if he goes far into the wilderness I can find him if the phone picks up a signal. I bought the smarttag2 mostly for precise location. Thank you for the video. I also would be interested if there were a way to link his location to my DJI Mavic Mini. That would be pretty snazzy if I could hook my drone up and get it to autofly to his location while I'm traveling to him. Hopefully it never comes to him running off. Wish me luck.

Would this show my real time location on the maps when tracking a dog on the move ?

still worth buying this product? or wait for something better coming over the horizon? i saw on reddit some users say to wait for google unified tag that suppose to work with all phones or something like that
