Gmail is one of the most popular email services today. One of the features I find the most convenient is the ability to connect multiple email accounts (whether Gmail accounts or not) to your device via the Gmail app. However, sometimes you have to delete the account from the Gmail app. This wikiHow teaches you how to delete an existing account in the Gmail app.

Step 2. Touch the profile thumbnail in the top right corner

This can be a profile photo or the first letters of an email address on a colorful background.

The placement of the Gmail app is usually the same whether you're using an Android or iOS device, but it can be different if you're using an older version of the app. If there's no thumbnail in the top right corner, try touching the menu button in the top left corner, then tap the profile thumbnail at the top of the menu list
