"SmartThings Classic" vs "SmartThings (Samsung Connect)"

[BRB01]

EDIT: This looks like the new thread on the non-beta user ST->SS account migration.

Important Changes to SmartThings Classic Login System

SmartThings Classic is updating to the Samsung Account login system! This is a step forward in our journey to prepare you for the new SmartThings app, which will bring you access to Samsung devices and services in addition to the hundreds of Works with SmartThings products you already use and love. What to expect When alerted in the SmartThings Classic app, please follow the prompts to update to a Samsung account. Note that this is being released in small groups to ensure the best possible experience, so not all users will see the update at the same time. Once you have updated, please continue to use the SmartThings Classic app until you receive additional communications from us. We are actively working to add the SmartThings Classic features you love into the new SmartThings app. Goin…

I can assure you, I am not a beta tester, unless you count the normal everyday use of ST, which feels like beta testing at times.

That said, perhaps there is a first round of migrations, or and perhaps they are picking folks with a ton of devices >40, like myself to see how bad they can mess things up.
