Juggling multiple Google accounts can be a pain, especially when you constantly find yourself signing into the wrong one. Luckily, making your preferred Google account the default is a simple fix!
Unfortunately, Google doesn't offer a direct setting to permanently choose a default account across all services. However, you can achieve the desired effect by strategically managing your sign-in process. The key is the order in which you sign in. Google typically defaults to the *first* account you sign in with in a browser session.
Here's the strategy:
1. **Sign Out:** Log out of all your Google accounts.
2. **Sign In First:** Sign in with the Google account you want as your default.
3. **Sign In Second (and Onward):** Sign in to your other accounts.
By following this order, your preferred account will generally be the first one recognized for most Google services like Gmail, Drive, and YouTube within that browser session. Remember, this might need repeating after clearing browser data or switching browsers. While not a perfect solution, this method provides a relatively consistent experience for a default Google account.
