Signing out of Google Account on Android Remotely

If you've had your phone stolen, then you may wish to use this method. You can easily Remove a Device.

You can do this in just a few simple steps:

  1. Go to "myaccount.google.com".
  2. Click on "Device activity & security events". You'll find this option under Sign-in & security.google account sign-in screen
  3. Click on "Review Devices". Here, you will be able to see all the devices you're signed into (including the one that you're on now).google account user device list
  4. Finally, click on the device that you wish to sign out from, and click "Remove" account access. This will effectively sign you out.remove device from google account

From the screen you are presented with on Step 4, you will also be able to track the location of your device (I have removed it from the screenshot for privacy reasons), and when the device was last used as well.

So there you have it, guys, two simple ways to sign out from your Android device, either directly from your phone or from another device. Although there is another method where you can sign out through Android Device Manager, this has usually given inaccurate location results and "last used" results for me, even suggesting Antarctica at one point! Therefore, I recommend the "My account" step if you're accessing it from any other device.

Let me know in the comments below if you have any other methods that you prefer to use or another app that may also do the job. I'd love to hear from you!
