How do I sign out of Gmail on just one device?
- On a computer: Open Gmail, click your profile photo in the top-right corner, and select Sign out.
- On Android or iPhone: Open the Gmail app, tap your profile photo in the top-right corner, tap Manage accounts on this device, choose the account, and tap Remove account. This removes the account from the Gmail app on that device without touching your account anywhere else.
This is what most people mean by "logging out" — it ends the session on the device in front of you and leaves every other signed-in device untouched.
How do I sign out of Gmail everywhere at once?
Gmail has a built-in tool for exactly this, separate from your Google Account settings:
- Open Gmail on a computer and scroll all the way to the bottom of your inbox.
- Find the small text that reads "Last account activity: [time]" and click Details next to it.
- A window opens showing recent sign-in activity, including whether your account is open in other locations or on other devices.
- Click Sign out of all other web sessions. This immediately signs out every session except the one you're currently using.
Google recommends doing this whenever you suspect your account has been accessed by someone else, or after using Gmail on a public or borrowed computer.
What's the difference between this and the Google Account device manager?
Your Google Account (not just Gmail) keeps a broader list of devices and apps connected to it — phones, browsers, and third-party apps that use "Sign in with Google." To review and sign out of those individually:
- Go to your Google Account and open the Security section.
- Under "Your devices," select Manage all devices.
- Tap the device you want to remove, then select Sign out.
Gmail's "sign out of all other web sessions" tool is faster for an all-at-once web sign-out. The Google Account device manager is more useful when you want to check exactly which devices and locations have access, and remove them one at a time — for example, if you spot a device or city you don't recognize.

How do I sign out of Gmail on every device at once?
Scroll to the bottom of your Gmail inbox, click Details next to Last account activity, and select Sign out of all other web sessions. Or use Security > Your devices > Manage all devices in your Google Account.
Will signing out of all devices also sign me out on my own phone?
Sign out of all other web sessions from Gmail leaves your current session active and only signs out other sessions. The Google Account device manager lets you sign out specific devices individually, so you stay in control of which ones remain signed in.
