Overview
- Reddit-based diagnostics reported by SamMobile show a Galaxy S24 enabling its UWB direction engine only when a SmartTag is detected.
- Tests cited in Android Headlines describe full features such as directional arrows and AR guidance for SmartTag+ but a reduced “UWB Lite” experience with a Moto Tag.
- A SamMobile comparison on a Galaxy S24 Ultra found complete UWB features for SmartTag+ and none for the Moto Tag in the same conditions.
- Contradictory user reports say Moto Tag features can work normally on Samsung phones, indicating inconsistent behavior that may depend on setup or software.
- Samsung has not confirmed any limitation, as discussion continues over whether this reflects intentional gating or unresolved compatibility issues.
