Resetting Samsung SmartTag
- Begin by ensuring that the battery is in good condition. If you're using an old battery, consider replacing it with a fresh one to avoid power-related issues.
- Locate the button on your Samsung SmartTag. It is the only physical button on the device and can be found in the center of the tag.
- Press and hold the button. Keep it pressed for about 5-7 seconds or until the light blinks or you hear a sound. This indicates that the device is resetting.
- Once reset, the SmartTag will need to be reconnected to your device. Open the SmartThings app on your smartphone and follow the instructions to add the SmartTag to your list of devices again.
