Although our Android mobile is associated with an account, which allows us to enter many Google applications and synchronize content, on many occasions it is necessary to change this account. Either because the email has changed or because you simply want to put a different one, let’s see how to easily change the Android account .
When we release Android mobile, Google will ask us for an email account in order to access our contacts, the calendar or to download applications from Google Play. Also, when we add an account, the information associated with it is automatically synchronized with the phone. This account will be seen by default when entering YouTube, Maps and other Google apps.
Change account
In Settings
To be able to change it we will have to go to the Settings menu of our mobile and click on “Google” and then on Manage Google gutter. Then we touch at the top on “Personal information” and then “Contact information”. Now we touch on email. Then it only remains to click on “Edit” and that is where we will have to enter a new email address that has not yet been used in another Google account.
In the Google App
Another simple option to change our Google account on the mobile, is to enter the “Google” app that is installed on our device. If not, we can download it from Google Play in a matter of seconds. When entering the application we will see all the emails with which we have logged into our mobile. Simply click on one or the other to change the default. We can also add a new one if we go to the bottom and click on “Add another account”
And to erase it?
From that moment, the selected account will be that we will see associated with the main Google apps and where the data will be synchronized. However, if we join too many accounts, we may occasionally want to delete one to maintain a certain order. To do this we will have to reopen the “Settings” of the mobile. Then we touch on “Accounts” and then on “Users and accounts”. Now we just have to tap on the account we want to remove and click on “Remove account” . In case it is the only Google account on the phone, we will have to enter the pattern, the PIN or the password for security reasons.
