No, you don't need a Samsung account to use Find My Mobile.
While a Samsung account is highly recommended and offers more features, you can still use some basic Find My Mobile functions without one.
Here's a breakdown:
Using Find My Mobile Without a Samsung Account:
- Locate Your Device: You can use the Find My Mobile website to locate your device even without a Samsung account. This feature is available for all Samsung devices, regardless of whether you've signed in.
- Limited Features: Without a Samsung account, you'll only be able to track the location of your device. You won't have access to additional features like:
- Remote Lock: Locking your device remotely
- Remote Wipe: Erasing your data remotely
- Ringing: Making your device ring even if it's on silent
- Last Known Location: Viewing the last known location of your device
Benefits of a Samsung Account:

Conclusion:
While you can use Find My Mobile to locate your device without a Samsung account, you'll miss out on essential features like remote lock, wipe, and ringing. If you want full control and access to all features, a Samsung account is highly recommended.
