One of the main drawback of the Mobile tracking apps in android was its inability to locate a device which doesn't have Internet connection. If you lost your phone and the person who got it removed your SIM, you won't be able to locate it. 

With some recent updates to the Find my Mobile app (in built), Samsung has come up with a simple solution to locate your device even if it's offline.

It simply utilizes other Samsung devices nearby your device with Internet connection to locate your device.

When you turn this option on, you can not only find your device but also help others to find their lost devices.
