That's nice.
There is a better option than logging into a browser.
Open SmartThings app.
All our devices which supports SmartThings find and connected to samsung account will show here. Tap on the desired device and that's it. Device located. No hazel of logging in. 😎😎

Yes that's definitely better. But in case you lose your main device, only the brower version is possible.

Yes you are right. Browser version have better remote control options too. I just mentioned SmartThings can also be used for the same, especially to locate your wearables. It uses nearby scanning to show the precise location(on supported models)
