Troubleshooting
- weTag mini not appearing in Find My app: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your iOS device. Check if the weTag mini battery is charged or correctly installed. Try resetting the weTag mini by removing and reinserting the battery.
- No sound when trying to locate: Verify that the weTag mini is within Bluetooth range. Check the battery level in the Find My app. Ensure your device's volume is audible.
