How to set up and manage your Samsung account
Not only does your Samsung account give you access to exclusive apps, like SmartThings and Samsung Pay, it lets you back up, restore, and
sync your data between multiple devices, like your phone and tablet. This will also help if you forget your ID or password. Some features may
vary by device and country, so remember to keep your information up-to-date.
Note:
Available settings and screens may vary by wireless service provider, software version, and device. When signing in to an account, you
may be asked to verify your identity using two-step verification.
