exact same here…

Hi all,

Im also really hoping for this beeing picked up by someone. I use smarttag on my dogs collar to track it, if it were to run away. :slight_smile: Anyway, it would be really great to use the information in automations beyond just that. I want to control lights, cameras/alarms, robottic vacuum and robottic lawnmower scedules based on where my do is. (Home/Away, but even also Inside or in the garden.)

Would love to see this integrated.

Anything new?

Hey,

Although it’s not the best, I’ve got a workaround which is quite reliable :slight_smile:

It seems the Samsung SmartTag is not currently supported in the SmartThings API, here are a few posts about it. Optimistically The SmartTag may be supported in Home Assistant once it’s implemented in SmartThings API

Does anyone knows if this was resolved?

Man, was soo hoping that I could add a “map” card with my new smarttags. Going on a trip and wanted to track the bags in one UI. Button press would be amazing too. Maybe as a whole home “lock” “unlock” feature. Guess I’ll patiently wait.

Welcome to the forum @ygutierrez!
The workaround by @91JJ linked in this thread works like a charm for me, perhaps you could try that one?

SmartThings Labs doesn’t seem to be available outside of the US and South-Korea… Well not in France anyway. The button "Labs"is not present in my app.

So while Samsung does’nt fix its API to support SmartTags it won’t work

23

Labs and virtual switches are available in the UK, at least, and I can confirm that if you are able to create a virtual switch, doing so works well enough (there’s sometimes just a bit of a delay due to the cloud integration).

I was looking through the SmartThings CLI a little and the smart tags seem to be kinda? supported. It might be worth having another look at that… (In Germany btw)

Hi,
I found how to control stuff in H.A with my SmartTag button, without need of the lab (that’s not available in France).

how to achieve it ?
a) Go on the SmartThings web interface (http://ide.smartthings.com/), and create in the Devices section a new virtual switch, see how to here : How to Create a Virtual Switch in SmartThings (With Images) | Smart Device Life

b) Once you create your virtual button in SmartThings, you should see it in your devices lists

c) Go in the SmartThings app on your phone, and edit your SmartTag settings, you’ll then be able to map the button press/long press to this Virtual switch.
On my side I’ll use them to control my Alarm, with a short press to switch off, and a long press to switch on.

d) Go back in H.A, and reload your SmartThings integration, you should now see your new virtual switch. When you click your SmartTag, you’ll see the virtual button changing state in H.A.

e) Create an automation in H.A… if SmartTag is enabled, then… do the magic :sweat_smile:

it would be awesome, but without a proper integration, it seems out of range :sweat_smile:

Hi Nil,
I’m curious on how you achieved this last part, did you find a way to get the SmartTag position in H.A ?
I would also like to ensure the tag button can only be used nearby my flat.

Is there any progress in integrating smart tag location to home assistant?

I’m also hoping for full integration for our SmartTag+s.
