BAGTAG Flex Smart new Electronic User Manual
Welcome to BAGTAG.
Your device works in combination with the BAGTAG app and the connected airline’s app. For a list of connected airlines, please check our website.
To activate your BAGTAG, download the BAGTAG mobile application in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Registering the BAGTAG Flex
Step 1: Log in the BAGTAG app
To register the BAGTAG device (which you only need to do once), go to the App
Store or Google Play Store and download the BAGTAG application. You will first
need to sign up or log in before registering the device.
Step 2: Add the device
Go to the device tab (suitcase icon) after logging in and select the ‘Add
device’ option. Check to see if your location sharing, Internet, and Bluetooth
are enabled.
Step 3: Register with NFC
To connect the BAGTAG with your phone, choose the ‘Activate with NFC’ option in the BAGTAG app and place the back of your phone close to the device.
Keep in mind that depending on the phone, the NFC positioning varies (see the next page for an indication).
Continue to hover the phone until a blue light appears on top of the BAGTAG, indicating that the devices are attempting to connect. Wait till the blue light remains blue, which means the devices are connected.
The BAGTAG is now ready for its first flight.
Please note:
- Smartphone cases can make it difficult to establish an NFC connection.
- The distance you should have between your smartphone and the BAGTAG you would like to establish a connection with can be different for any kind of mobile phone.
- It is important to hold the devices stable, otherwise, there is a risk of losing connection.
Check in your baggage
Step 1: Check in
Check in your bag through the supported airline app. The luggage label is transferred to the BAGTAG from within the airline’s mobile app. This option is available after check-in.
Step 2: Updating the BAGTAG display
Choose your upcoming flight and activate the BAGTAG with NFC. Follow the instructions in the airline app to update the BAGTAG display. The label should be successfully sent to the BAGTAG, and the flight information will appear on the e-paper display.
