It has 330 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 26, 2026. SmartThings Find is an integration that brings Samsung SmartThings Find devices into Home Assistant with their location and battery. It covers phones, tablets, watches, earbuds and SmartTags, and it can make a device ring or ask it for its current position. Each device gets a location tracker, plus a connected sensor, status sensors for last update, network and last request result, and buttons for ringing, stopping the ring and updating the location. Location updates run in a passive mode that reads the last position Samsung holds, or an active mode that asks the device and uses its battery; a per-device switch overrides the defaults. A maximum position age drops old positions so a person entity falls back to its other trackers. It talks to Samsung's cloud and is set up in the UI by signing in with a Samsung account or a browser cookie header. Automatic summary of the README and code of fapgomes/ha-smartthings-find.

Active: ask the device for its position automatically, at most once per automatic update interval (fresher, uses the device's battery). Change it per device with its \*Automatic location update\* switch. - **Automatic update interval (seconds)**: Minimum time between automatic location requests to the same device. Requests are only sent on updates, so the real interval is rounded up to the next update. - **Maximum position age (minutes, 0 = no limit)**: After this, the tracker stops reporting the old position (state unknown), so person falls back to its other trackers. ### Cookie header - **Cookie header**: The complete Cookie header of the chkLogin.do request. - **Update interval (seconds)** - **Session keepalive interval (seconds)** - **Default SmartTag mode**: Passive: read the last position Samsung has (no extra battery use).
