Interesting.
For me the Google Find My Phone couldn't find the device (could only show the most recent location) and couldn't ring it, but the Samsung Find My Phone got the location, battery level and could ring it immediately.
I'm guessing they added their implementation as an exception to the encryption, but not Google's implementation

Good to know. I've been using the Google one and not Samsung because having two of the same app seemed redundant. Guess I'll set up the Samsung one, thanks
