How to Change Your Default Google Account

Earlier, there was no option to use multiple accounts together in Gmail. To use any other account, you had to first sign out from the current account. But now you can use the Google multiple accounts feature to sign in to different accounts simultaneously. Here’s how to change your default Google account.

Steps to Change Your Default Google Account

•    Go to http://www.google.com.

•    Otherwise, go to the Gmail inbox in the default web browser.

•    In case you have selected to open the Gmail inbox, then ensure that you are signed in to the default Google account.

•    You will get the profile symbol of the recent default Google account in the upper right-hand side of the display.

•    Press on the profile symbol.

•    After that, press on the Sign Out option.

•    Make sure that you don’t have selected the Incognito Mode while doing the changing process of the default Google account.

•    You have to select the email ID.

•    Press on the Next option.

•    Type the password registered with Google account.

•    In case you do not have any other Google account but still want to change your default account, then make a new Google account.

•    After signing in to your default Google account, start press on the Add account option provided to the left-hand side of the Sign Out option.

Steps to Change Your Default Email ID in Gmail

•    Press on the Settings symbol provided in the Google account taskbar.

•    Choose the Settings tab by going to the menu list.

•    Choose the Accounts and Import option.

•    Choose the make default option given near to the preferred name.

•    You will get the email ID in the Send mail as an option.

•    You can’t change your default email ID without the Gmail application on your iPhone and Android.

If you have a Gmail account, then you need to use your default email ID in the Form: section. Here are the steps listed below to do this procedure:

•    Press on the Settings symbol located in the Google account taskbar.

•    Now, you will get the menu list on the screen.

•    On that menu list, you have to choose the Settings option.

•    Click on the Accounts and Import option.

•    Press on the Send mail as the option appears next to the “When replying to a message” option.

•    Choose the Always reply option by going to your default email ID.
