I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S9 FE+ tablet. I currently have a Pixel 3a phone using my Google account. I am running out of space on my phone for my "Messages" and would like to copy them over to my tablet as it has more storage space.
My question is this. Should I create a different email for my Samsung account on my tablet? Or should I use my existing Google account for both Google and Samsung services on my tablet?
1. I'm kind of confused how is Messages taking up all of your storage on your phone.
2. I would make an Email Address just for your Samsung Account.

@GaryB82 , thank you for your response. Messages is using up the storage on my Google account as I only have 15gb of storage on Google Drive. I have a lot of messages with attachments that I do a backup of every week.
I will create a separate Samsung email account for my tablet.

@GaryB82 , on my Pixel 3a phone, the messages are stored locally. But I do a backup every week and the backup is stored on Google Drive. Google Drive offers 15gb of free storage and then you have to pay if you need more space.
OK, I would suggest going into Drive and deleting any old backups that you have I keep 1 or 2 Backups in Drive of my phone I'm only using around 6gb of storage out of the 15gb
