How do I change the Phone Number linked to my Samsung Account?

Last Update date : Sep 29. 2026

Your Samsung account holds a lot of important personal information, so it is protected with two-step verification. You'll receive a text message containing a code on your mobile device to confirm that it is you logging into the account. If your mobile number has changed, and you can't receive the text, you'll need to change the phone number on your account.
