"Find my device" app not working

My android Motorola E6 phone is not discovering my second device, a generic Android tablet when using the app "Find my device". However, if I open "Find my device" on my tablet it discovers and displays my phone's location ok , so its obviously working.

Possibly not related, my tablet is on wifi only so there's no sim card in it. Would that make a difference?
I have already checked that "location" is enabled on my tablet.
Lastly, I have gone onto the Find my device website in my PC's browser and only my Motorola phone shows up, nothing about my Tablet!

Anyone got any ideas?

## JUST GOT IT SORTED OUT - I UNINSTALLED THE "FIND MY DEVICE" APP ON MY TABLET, REINSTALLED IT WITH AN OLDER VERSION, AND BINGO., MY TABLET CAN NOW BE DISCOVERERED BY MY TABLET AND VICE VERSA
