When charging, the LED light will light solid red.

Please note that the following functions will not work if the BagID 2 has been set to communicate with the BagID app and the LED is blinking blue (after clicking the left button once). The LED will stop blinking after 3seconds and then the BagID is ready to be used with Find My functionality.
4.1 Enable Find My functionality
To enable the Find My functionality, hold down the left-button for more than 10 seconds and then press the right button once (while holding down the left button). The LED light will
light green for three seconds. If no iOS device pairs with the
accessory within 10 minutes after Find My activation, the Find My functionality will automatically be disabled, and three beeps will be heard.
Repeat the combination for turning on Find My for enabling it again.
Upon successful pairing, the Find My functionality will only be disabled upon user request as described in the next section, or with Find My factory reset.
Note: If the battery is low (below 20%), the BagID 2
will not be reachable from the Apple Find My app. Recharge the battery.
4.2 Disable Find My functionality
To disable the Find My functionality, hold down the left-button for more than 10 seconds and then press the right button once
(while holding down the left button). The LED light will
light red for three seconds.
4.3 Find My factory reset
Hold down the left button for more than 10 seconds and
click three times on the right button. Note that this will only
factory erase Find My-related data, and the button combination only works if
Find My is enabled. When factory resetting, the LED will light red for 3seconds, and you will hear three beeps.
Note: Factory reset will delete all pairing information. The user must remove the BagID 2 device from the Find My app and enable Find My functionality before it can be used again.
4.4 Removing the BagID 2 from the Apple Find My app
When removing the BagID 2 from the Apple Find My app, you should have the BagID close by and the BagID should not be in BagID mode.
If this is not the case, the Find My app will present to you the option to force remove the BagID.
Force remove the BagID should be avoided if possible.
This leads to a situation where you must execute Find My factory reset to be able to use the BagID 2 in Find My again.
If you experience further connection issues please enter the iOS device Bluetooth settings and ‘forget’ any existing Bluetooth connections to BagID devices.
