Do you e'er get dislocated equally to which Gmail, Google Drive, or Google Calendar account y'all're using? Have you tried to bring together a Google Come across call for work, only to be rejected because y'all were accidentally in your personal business relationship? Yes, it happens to us too. All. The. Time. Fortunately, Google makes information technology easy not simply to switch between accounts just to set a different account as your default.

How to change your default Google account

On the web

If you lot're already logged in to your Google account on the spider web (whether you're in Gmail or another Google app), here's how y'all tin can switch betwixt accounts.

Open a Google app in your browser of choice.
Click on your avatar (photo of yous or your initials) in the top right corner of the screen.
You should run into a dropdown showing all of the Google accounts that you've used to login on this browser. Select the ane you want to switch to.

That's it! A new browser tab will open with your secondary account app. If y'all want to change which of your Google accounts is the default business relationship so that whenever yous open a Google app in a new tab this will be the account that opens upward past default, here's what you want to practice.

Open a Google app in your browser of choice.
Click on your avatar (photograph of you lot or your initials) in the top right corner of the screen.
Yous should run across a dropdown showing all of the Google accounts that you've used to login on this browser. At the bottom of that list, click on Sign out of all accounts.

At present whatever Google app you open volition default to the new primary account. Of course, you lot can even so easily switch between accounts using the method we went over in the first section.

Another way that you can rapidly tell which account you are in (and I discovered this recently with a Google See mixup) is to expect at the URL string in the browser navigation bar. If you see authuser=0, that is what Google thinks is your primary business relationship (for me, my personal i). In this instance, I wanted to log in with my Android Key account, so I just quickly changed that to authuser=1. And then I was in the correct account (y'all can also just click on the avatar as I mentioned in the first section, but I thought this was a cool discovery, so indulge me in this please).

In my opinion, there'southward not much reason to change default accounts on your phone, as yous can add multiple Google accounts to any Google app. Simply be careful which business relationship yous are sending messages or setting appointments in!

Other things to note

If you haven't already, I highly recommend setting unique avatars for each Google account yous ain. I prefer to use personal photos but to each their own. That fashion, yous can hands see which account you are in at a glance, and won't get confused by seeing initials with a unlike colored background.

Another thing that helps me out, at to the lowest degree as regards to Gmail, is that I like to keep both my personal and work Gmail accounts open in divide tabs. This mode, whenever I want to kickoff a new bulletin, I know exactly which account I'one thousand sending it from.

A final annotation: you tin can really log into Chrome from one of your accounts, and that will dictate which is your default account in the browser. Personally, I log in to Chrome from my personal account and so that I can continue all of my bookmarks and history, and so I log in to work accounts separately at the tab/app level.
