Samsung Link

Samsung Link makes staying connected easy. You can wirelessly synchronize your Samsung device with your TV, stream content, and even keep tabs on who calls or sends text messages with real-time, on-screen monitoring.

Samsung Link allows users to share their in-device media content with other external devices using DLNA certified™ (Digital Living Network Alliance) Devices. These external devices must also be DLNA-compliant. Wi-Fi capability can be provided to TVs via a digital multimedia streamer (not included).

Samsung Link uses your Samsung account. The first time you launch Samsung Link, follow the prompts to sign in to your Samsung account, or create a new account.

Both your phone, and the devices that connect to your phone, must be on the same Wi-Fi access point (AP). For more information about using Wi-Fi, see Wi-Fi.

Note: Depending on the software version on your phone, you may see AllShare Play preloaded, or Samsung Link. If you have AllShare Play, you’ll be prompted to upgrade to Samsung Link the first time you launch AllShare Play.
