how to sign Android device out of Google account temporarily How can I - from my Android device - temporarily sign the device out of a Google account?  I'm running Android 6.0.1 on a Galaxy Note 4.

If I go to Settings > Accounts > Google > tap specific account > three dots menu - there is a "Remove Account" option.  But I don't want to remove the account from the device, I just want to sign out of the account temporarily, and sign back in later.  I suspect that "remove account" does a lot more than just signing out of the account.

I can do it from my PC - myaccount.google.com > "device activity &amp; security events" > "review devices" > click specific device > Account Access: REMOVE button.  This  does not remove the account from the device.  It just signs the device out of the Google account.  It takes one tap to sign the device back into the Google Account.
In android removing the account is equivalent to that of logging out in PC. As lots of data is being synced from your google accounts to your phone therefore if you remove the account from your phone the data which is already synced won't be affected, But you won't be able to use any google related services in your phone.

Apart from that there won't be any problem.
