The samsung smart tag worked as normal with s21 ultra and I could use the 2 times button push to make the phone ring in case I need to find it. However when setup on galaxy note20ultra the feature for find phone by ringing it with 2 button pushes on smart tag is not there. A

what is the smart things app version on your Note 20 ultra? your buttons seem different.

you can check by going into your smart things app

click the 3 lines on top left corner

click the gear button on the top right corner of the newly appeared window

scroll all the way down and click on "about smartthings"

I'm on 1.7.60.23

Hi there

For anybody who still has or is having this problem right now. 2 things, if your tag is not working in finding your phone with double press on tag + or tag. If your are sure your phone is connected to your tag, for example you can find your tag with your phone and make it ring then you don't have to reset tag. Just delete the app "SmartThings" and reinstall. Once the app is reinstalled it will find your tag,  then follow all the steps and Bob's your Uncle "It's fixed"! Also if you have the tag+ don't forget to go to settings, connection and switch on UWB for the camera search to work. It's not on by default. You do need to have a compatible Samsung Smartphone that supports UBW connection, not all Samsung phones have this option. Good luck! 🤗
