How to Sign out of One Google Account When Using Multiple Accounts
May. 17, 2021You can sign in to one or more Google accounts simultaneously on both your mobile and PC, but you can’t sign out of one account at a time on the web. Instead, Google forces you to sign out of all accounts at once, even if you only want to log out of one or two accounts. It’snot a problem on Android or iOS devicesbecause you can sign out of Google accounts one at a time. However, that’s not possible on the web. So today, we will show you a nifty workaround that will help you sign out of one Google account on any device when using multiple accounts.

The inability to log out of a single Google account at a time may not be a big deal for people who only use one Gmail ID, but it isreally inconvenientfor folks who manage multiple accounts. This tutorial will show you a trick that will let you sign out of only one Google account on your computer instead of having to sign out of all accounts at once. So without any further ado, let’s check out how you can log out of one Google account while remaining logged in to the rest.

You cannot directly sign out of a single Google account on the web with the click of a “Sign out” button when using multiple accounts. Instead, you will need to use a second device, either a desktop or mobile, to remotely log out of a single account on the target device. Here’s how it works:
Note:You can also access these settings from any Google app, including Gmail, Google Drive, Google Maps, etc. For that, tap on your profile picture at the top-right corner in these apps and select the account you want to log out of. Then tap on the button that says ‘Google Account’ or ‘Manage Your Google Account’.
That’s all. Now, you know how to sign out of one Google account when using multiple accounts on your Windows 10 or Mac computer. All of your other Gmail accounts will remain signed in. You can repeat this handy process for as many devices or as many accounts as you want.
