Google Pinyin Input (IME) keeps asking for Google account permission Google Pinyin Input is an input method (IME) for Chinese.

It keeps asking me for Google account permission.

I deny it all the time, but it always comes back and asks again when I reboot (which is quite often). The IME works perfectly without that permission.

Question: How to deny the permission once for all?


I have a Nexus 5 with Android 7.1.2 / LineageOS 14.1-20170718.
It always pops up one request for each of the Google accounts I have configured in the Gmail app. I never use pinyin in Gmail.
I had this problem. I'd half installed Pinyin so continual prompting for a login account.
Go to Google play store and search for Google Pinyin Input. When that appeared there was an option to uninstall it (because it had already been installed).
