(Pocket-lint) - Samsung has announced an update to SmartThings Find - the application used to manage its Galaxy SmartTag tracker - that will help boost your privacy.
The Galaxy SmartTag is a Bluetooth tracker, designed to help you find your belongings if you lose them. It uses your phone to provide the location, so if you lose it, you ll have a record of the last place you had it.
Other Galaxy phones can anonymously detect tags and pass that location data back to the user to aid in finding lost devices.
