So me and my mom both have Samsung phones and Samsung has their own proprietary ecosystem and this requires a Samsung account so both phones use my account.

 

The problem is I have my mom's contacts on my phone and when I delete them it gets deleted on her phone as well and I have to restore those contacts from Google contacts. And the problem starts all over again.

 

Any1 got a solution to this

PC: Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB 3200mhz RAM (8GBx2), Gigabyte B550M DS3H, GTX 1050 2GB, 650W Semi-Modular PSU80+ Gold

Phone: Poco F3 8GB + 256GB

Audio: Samson SR850s

Sound Card: SoundBlaster Play 4 USB sound card

IEM: planning to get the KBEAR KS2s
Please be patient with me, I'm fatally dumb and its honestly a miracle I've made it this far

Use different Accounts.
Anything else makes no sense.

 

Or.. Just dont delete them.

but yea. Every Human User of an Android Smartphone should have his own "Google Account".

My mom can't bother with having her own email.

Use different accounts? Check your settings there may be a way of turning it off. 

 

This happens with my parents, I just got used to it. There's no issue with it. 

Maybe I should turn off sync? I'll try that

It's not like she would need to do anything for it ?

I have my @gmail.com google account, but no services run over it. So i pretty much never get anything important there.
She won't need to check it, or do anything. Nothing for her will change.
She will just Sync her own Contacts
