To remove a secondary Gmail account from your device, follow these steps:
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Locate Your Account Icon:
Click on your profile picture or account icon, typically found in the upper right corner of your Gmail screen. This will reveal your account options.
- Sign Out of All Accounts:
If you have multiple Gmail accounts logged in, you'll see the option "Sign out of all accounts". This step is crucial for proceeding to the next step, as the option to remove an individual account only appears after signing out of the others.
- Select "Remove an Account":
After signing out of all accounts, you will be redirected to a screen showing all the accounts previously logged in. Here, you'll see the "Remove an account" option. Click on this and then choose the specific secondary account you want to remove.
- Confirm Removal:
A confirmation prompt will appear asking if you are sure you want to remove the selected account. Click "Yes" to confirm. Note that this step does not delete the Google account itself, but removes it from your device or browser.
- Sign Back In:
After removing the secondary account, sign back into your preferred or main Gmail account.
By following these steps, you can easily manage and remove secondary Gmail accounts from your device or browser. Remember, removing the account from your device will not delete the account itself. You can still access it on other devices or by logging in again.
