I prefer to use personal photos but to each their own.

If you haven't already, I highly recommend setting unique avatars for each Google account you own. Just be careful which account you are sending messages or setting appointments in! Other things to note In my opinion, there's not much reason to change default accounts on your phone, as you can add multiple Google accounts to any Google app. Tap on the dropdown arrow next to the current default Google account.Scroll down and tap on Google/Google Settings.Then I was in the correct account (you can also just click on the avatar as I mentioned in the first section, but I thought this was a cool discovery, so indulge me in this please). In this case, I wanted to log in with my Android Central account, so I just quickly changed that to authuser=1. If you see authuser=0, that is what Google thinks is your primary account (for me, my personal one). Of course, you can still easily switch between accounts using the method we went over in the first section.Īnother way that you can quickly tell which account you are in (and I discovered this recently with a Google Meet mixup) is to look at the URL string in the browser navigation bar. Now any Google app you open will default to the new primary account. Sign back in with the account you want to be your primary account.

At the bottom of that list, click on Sign out of all accounts.

You should see a dropdown showing all of the Google accounts that you've used to login on this browser.

If you want to change which of your Google accounts is the default account so that whenever you open a Google app in a new tab this will be the account that opens up by default, here's what you want to do. That's it! A new browser tab will open with your secondary account app. You should see a dropdown showing all of the Google accounts that you've used to login on this browser.

Click on your avatar (photo of you or your initials) in the top right corner of the screen.

Open a Google app in your browser of choice.

If you're already logged in to your Google account on the web (whether you're in Gmail or another Google app), here's how you can switch between accounts. How to change your default Google account On the web Fortunately, Google makes it easy not only to switch between accounts but to set a different account as your default. Do you ever get confused as to which Gmail, Google Drive, or Google Calendar account you're using? Have you tried to join a Google Meet call for work, only to be rejected because you were accidentally in your personal account? Yeah, it happens to us too.
