Hi @LifeBrosG1 

You need to turn on Find My Device  in your Google Account as well. See this help page and its links: Find your phone with Google Assistant - Android - Google Nest Help 

That should help

Yes I do. How do I update my Samsung Galaxy Note8 (Verizon Wireless)? When I go in my settings and I search up system updates it just says Apps > App Info and then system updates. I have been having trouble updateing my phone.

Thanks,
