Add accounts to your Galaxy phone or tablet
Add a Samsung account
The best way to get the most from your Galaxy phone or tablet is to add a Samsung account, so you can experience all of Samsung’s exclusive features.
To add a Samsung account, navigate to and open Settings, and then tap Samsung account at the top. Then, enter your Samsung account credentials to sign in. If you don't already have an account, don't worry. Just tap Forgot password or don’t have an account? to make one, or create one on the Samsung account website.
Once your Samsung account is added, you can manage and edit your account preferences, like changing your password if needed.
Add a Google account
Can't live without Google? To use the Google Play Store and download apps from it, you’ll need to add a Google account.
Navigate to and open Settings, and then swipe to and tap Accounts and backup. Tap Manage accounts, and then tap Add account. Tap Google, and then enter your Google account information to sign in.
When you add your Google account, you'll be able to access emails using the Gmail app on your phone or tablet, as well as use Google apps and Google services.
Add an email account
Last but not least, add an email account and receive your emails through the Samsung Email app.
Navigate to and open Settings, and then swipe to and tap Accounts and backup. Tap Manage accounts, and then tap Add account. Select your email provider and then enter your account credentials. Depending on your provider, there may be additional requirements to complete the setup on your device. If needed, sign into your account via the internet, and then enable access to allow use of the app.
If necessary, you can download and install the Samsung Email app using the Galaxy Store or Play Store, or download and install the app for your email provider. After installing, open the app and select the desired email account you wish to add. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the setup.
Remove an account
If needed, you can easily remove your accounts whenever you want, whether it's a Samsung, Google, or email account. You can always add them again later on, using the same steps in the previous sections.
Navigate and open Settings, and then tap Accounts and backup. Tap Manage accounts, and then select the account you'd like to remove. Next, tap Remove account. Some accounts may have additional steps like entering your password, so check the screen for any extra steps.
Account settings
Settings for all of your accounts can be accessed directly on your phone or tablet. You can use the settings to sync data to your account as well as other devices signed into the same account. Some accounts will allow you to access your profile and other options as well. Keep in mind that accounts will have unique settings and customization options.
- Navigate to and open Settings, and then tap Accounts and backup.
- Tap Manage accounts, and then tap an account to customize its settings and options.
