Samsung's app for finding lost Galaxy devices and SmartTags and sharing your location with family and friends. It is safe to disable: you lose nothing most people will miss.

What it does

Samsung Find shows the location of your Galaxy phones, tablets, watches, earbuds and SmartTags, and lets you share your own location with family and friends for a set time. Samsung describes it as providing similar functions to SmartThings Find in a separate app. Samsung publishes it on the Play Store and Galaxy Store. It runs in the background while location sharing or item tracking is on.

If you disable it

You lose this app's map of your devices, tags and shared locations. Find My Mobile and Google's Find Hub are separate.

How to disable it

Settings offers Disable for this package on most phones. Open Settings > Apps > Samsung Find > Disable.

Disable it (reversible)

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.samsung.android.app.find

Turn it back on

adb shell pm enable com.samsung.android.app.find

The stronger option removes it for your user only; the original copy stays on the phone and a factory reset brings it back. Prefer disabling: it is easier to undo.

Uninstall for the main user

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.app.find

Restore after an uninstall

adb shell cmd package install-existing com.samsung.android.app.find

New to ADB? Set it up in about ten minutes.
