The vanilla Galaxy SmartTag offers the functionality of a Bluetooth tag, and that’s pretty much it. It can be used to track objects by using the built-in energy-saving Bluetooth 5.0 LE module. Both the Galaxy SmartTag and SmartTag+ come with a single button. This button can be used to send an alert and ensure that it is wirelessly connected to your smartphone allowing you to find your device in case you misplace it. It also works the other way round. You can use your phone to locate the tag attached to an item of your choice. The company has released a dedicated app for its new Bluetooth tags called Galaxy Find Network.
