How to Quickly Switch Between Multiple Google Accounts
I have three Google accounts: one for personal use, one for the college alumni association, and one for work. Switching from one to the other usually takes a few clicks or taps on my device – right on my large image in any Google service or app.
As it turns out, this is the most inefficient way to switch between different Google accounts. You have no choice if you use Google services on your desktop or laptop, but if you need to change account on your smartphone or tablet, there is a much easier way.
Open the Google app on your smartphone or tablet (like Gmail) and hover your finger over your image. Instead of touching the image, slide your finger up or down. This will switch you between different accounts – provided, of course, that you are already signed in to them on your device. This trick works great on iOS; however, Google’s Android apps are a random thing.
There is no faster way to switch between Google accounts on your devices and you will feel like a tiny wizard with your newfound powers. At least I did; I can’t believe how much time I spent tapping my face.
