When it comes to features, YouTube Music falls short compared to Spotify. However, it more than makes up for it with its extensive music library. This Google-powered streaming service is compatible with all major platforms, allowing you to enjoy your favorite tunes regardless of your device. But what if you signed into your YouTube Music account on a friend’s computer or device and now want to log out? Logging in to YT Music is a breeze, but logging out is a bit more complicated.
How to Log Out of YouTube Music on the Web
Logging out of YouTube Music on a desktop browser is much easier compared to the Android and iPhone apps. This is because the web version offers a direct option to sign out of the platform.
- To begin, open your favorite web browser on your PC.
- Navigate to YouTube Music.
- At the top right, click on your profile picture or initials.
- From the menu that appears, choose Sign out.
The issue here is that signing out of YouTube Music will also sign you out of your Google account. This means that if you want to use any other Google service, you’ll have to sign back in.
If you’re new to Google’s streaming service, you can transfer your Spotify playlists to YouTube Music to bring over your existing music library.
How to Log Out of YouTube Music on Android
The Android and iPhone apps for YouTube Music don’t have a direct sign-out option. Instead, you log in using your Google account, and the only way to sign out is to remove your account from the device. Note that when you remove your Google account, you’ll be signed out of all Google apps on your phone.
- Launch the YouTube Music app.
- Tap on your profile picture or initials at the top right.
- From the menu that opens, select Manage your Google Account.
- On the next screen, go to your email address.
- In the popup menu, choose Manage accounts on this device.
- Tap on Google under Accounts & Sync.
- Select the email ID that is currently logged in to YouTube Music.
- To sign out of all apps on your device using this account, including YouTube, tap Remove account.
Without Removing the Google Account
If you prefer not to sign out of all of your Google apps, you can clear the app data for YouTube Music on your Android phone to reset it to its default settings. This will also sign you out of the app. However, please note that any music you have downloaded for offline playback will be deleted as part of this process. So, if you have downloaded playlists or tracks that you don’t want to lose, it’s best not to use this method.
- First, go to Settings, then choose Apps, and finally click on All Apps.
- Look for YouTube Music in the list and select it.
- Tap on Storage & cache.
- Next, tap on Clear storage and Clear cache to delete all the data that the app has stored.
By doing this, you will delete all the data associated with YouTube Music on your device and you will be automatically logged out. The next time you open YouTube Music, you will need to sign in with your Google account.
How to Log Out of YouTube Music on iPhone
The YouTube Music app has a similar look on all mobile devices, but the steps for logging out are a bit different on an iPhone.
- Open the YouTube Music app on your iPhone.
- Tap on your profile picture or your initials at the top right corner of the screen.
- Select Switch account.
- Now, go to Manage account on this device.
- Tap on Remove from this device next to the email address you are currently logged in with on YouTube Music.
- Finally, select Remove in the popup that appears to confirm the account removal.
If logging out of YouTube Music seems difficult on your Android or iPhone, you can also try out alternative music streaming services.
