Samsung is expected to launch the highly anticipated Galaxy Ring in the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for July 10 alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6. However, we already have a lot of information about the development thanks to leaks, rumors, and appearances on certification platforms. The latest news is about a feature of the Galaxy Ring that will let you trigger an LED on the ring to blink using the Samsung Find app.

The Samsung Find app already helps you find out a variety of Galaxy devices including smartphones, tablets, watches, earbuds and more. The app has recently updated to a newer version, where Assemble Debug has found strings of code suggesting the development of the “lost mode” feature for the Galaxy Ring.

The feature will also allow you to lock your Samsung Account to protect your personal data

<string name="message_default_ring">I lost my ring. Please help me find it.</string>
<string name="ring_dialog_error_ring">Couldn't connect to Ring to start blinking.</string>
<string name="ring_dialog_ready_ring">Tap start to make the light on your ring blink.</string>
<string name="ring_dialog_ringing_ring">Ring light is blinking.</string>
<string name="pairing_lock_description_ring">This ring will be locked to your Samsung account. No one else will be able to use it.</string>

The Samsung Find app will also notify you if your phone is unable to connect with the ring to trigger the blinking feature. Additionally, the feature could also allow users to lock their Samsung Account so that no one else can access personal information via the ring.

While the Galaxy Ring is reportedly designed for continuous usage, the Lost mode will still be a helpful feature if you accidentally misplace the ring. Nonetheless, the feature is currently under development and Samsung may or may not release the feature with the final product.

An existing product in the space, the Oura ring does not have a similar feature to help its user find the device. It only enters a Restricted Mode when someone attempts to pair with a new device. The mode allows the user to erase all the information from the ring through the Oura app on the linked device.
