available on Samsung devices running OneUI 5.1.1, like the Galaxy Z Fold 5, but not those running OneUI 5.1 like the Galaxy S23
I have the setting on Galaxy A34 running latest stable firmware with OneUI 5.1, but it is called "notifications for unknown bluetooth trackers", slightly different from the post.
Tapping the AirTag icon on the screen will bring up information about the tracker in question — including a button to make it Play sound to help you track down its exact location.
This doesn’t seem like a good thing to have the ability to do? You can just click search and then force any AirTag that you find to play a noise?
Why should I use my battery and my electricity bill to fix an Apples issue?
Apple has to address the issue with they money. If they can't fix it as people are using the product correctly (tracking), they shut it down as a temporary or permanently solution.
They're not going to do that.
