Many of us already know that SmartThings Find allows you to find your lost devices such as your Galaxy phone, tablet or watch. However, did you know that you can locate your Galaxy device even when it is offline?

If you enable an enhanced feature called Offline finding, your Galaxy device is detectable as long as it is turned on - even when mobile data is disconnected. Other Galaxy devices will participate in the search for your Galaxy as 'Find Nodes', sending signals into the server that share your lost phone's location. So enable Offline finding now and you'll be in good hands.

How to turn on Offline finding

Step 1. Go to Settings > Tap on your Samsung Account at the top.
