If you’re unable to access your Gmail account on a PC, you can use your mobile phone to delete it permanently.

Well, the steps involved are quite familiar. Go through the guide below to learn how you can delete your Gmail account on your hand-held devices:

Step 1: Launch Gmail Application

Before deleting your Gmail service, download the official application on your mobile. If you’re an Android user, the application is available by default. For iOS users, the app is available for free on App Store.

How Can I Remove Gmail Account From My Device?

Certainly, there has been a time when a friend opens his Gmail profile on our device. Or we face an emergency to use our accounts in theirs. One way or another, removing the profiles is necessary. 

In this section, we will discuss how you can remove a Gmail account from another PC and smartphone.

Remove Gmail Account From Your Computer Browser

Generally, our profile is saved in the browsers when we log into our Gmail accounts. Removing it from the computer is a tricky task. This is because Google hasn’t provided a direct method to do so.

Nonetheless, here’s the most accurate technique to delete a profile from your PC when multiple accounts are signed in:

  1. Click on your profile picture on the Gmail toolbar. 
  2. Now, click on Sign out of all accounts.sign-out-of-all-accounts 
  3. Next, choose Continue. This will direct you to the Choose an account page.
  4. Select Remove an account.
    remove-account
  5. Now, click on the remove icon next to the profile you wish to delete.
    remove-account-yes
  6. Finally, choose Yes, remove.

Alternatively, if the other Gmail account is signed out, follow this general guide to remove the profile:

  1. Select your profile icon on the top-right corner of the browser.
  2. Then, click on the drop-down icon beside the Gmail account you wish to delete.
    remove-signed-out
  3. Now, choose Remove.

Remove Gmail Account From Your Mobile Application

Removing Google accounts from a smartphone is much easier than on a computer browser. Here are the basic steps on how you can get rid of them via the Gmail app:

  1. Navigate to the app and choose your profile button.
  2. Select Manage accounts on this device.manage-accounts-on-this-device
