📌 Why this matters
Why this matters
Logging out by removing an account ensures it no longer appears on the device at all. This is especially important when using shared or public computers, where accounts remain visible in the account switcher even after a basic sign-out. If left unchecked, another user can easily switch back into your account without needing your password. Removing the account fully prevents unauthorized access and protects your watch history, subscriptions, and channel management settings.
