How to remove a Google account from your Android phone

Swipe down from the top of the Home screen.

Tap the Settings button. It looks like a gear.

1. Swipe up in the Settings menu to scroll down.
2. Tap Accounts.
3. Tap Google.
4. Tap the Google account you'd like to remove.
5. Tap Remove account.
6. Tap Remove account to confirm the account removal.

When you remove any Google account, all the data associated with it is deleted from your phone. Your account isn't deleted from the cloud, so things like contacts or paid apps can be retrieved if you re-add the account or use the account on another device, but all your local data (like messages or app settings) is gone forever. You'll see a warning about data deletion before you finish the process.
