Unlinking or "unmerging" Google accounts is achievable by removing the linked account through your Gmail app settings on your Android device. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Steps to Unlink Google Accounts:
- Open the Gmail app: Locate and open the Gmail application on your Android phone or tablet.
- Access Settings: Scroll to the bottom of the app's menu (you may need to tap the menu icon, typically three horizontal lines, in the top left corner) and tap "Settings."
- Select the Account: Tap on the specific Gmail account that you want to unlink from your other account.
- Unlink the Account: In the "Linked Account" section (or a similarly worded section regarding linked accounts), tap the "Unlink account" option. This will remove the link between the two accounts.
Important Considerations:
- This process only removes the link between the accounts. It doesn't delete either Google account.
- After unlinking, each account will function independently.
- Ensure you are logged into the correct account before starting the process.
By following these steps, you can successfully unlink your Google accounts and manage them separately.
