How to remove Google account from Android device remotely
One of the first things that a user does during an Android device setup is to sign in with Google. It not only allows them to access Google Play Store for downloading new apps and games but also helps them keep a lot of data in sync. The latter is beneficial when you are moving from an old device to a new one or if you use multiple Android devices.
However, what if you want to remove the account from an Android device that has been stolen or cannot be accessed physically due to some other reason? This seems like a scary situation to be in but there is a simple way to get out of it. This article explains how you can sign out of your Google account from a device remotely.
