Add your accounts to your Samsung Galaxy

The good news is that you can easily add all of your existing accounts to your Samsung Galaxy device.
Note: Available screens and settings may vary by wireless service provider, software version and device model.

Note:
- Depending on the type of account being removed, additional steps may be required. You may be asked to enter your password again to confirm your identity before the account is removed.
- If you change your mind, you can reconnect your Samsung Galaxy device to the account at any time.
