In this article, you'll learn how to sign out of a Nintendo Account on a PC or mobile device.

Note
  • If multiple people use your mobile device or PC, make sure to sign out of all accounts that may be linked to a Nintendo Account (such as Nintendo Network ID, Apple ID, or Google). Otherwise, the browser may still remember you as being signed in on your device.

Complete these steps

  1. To sign out of your Nintendo Account in your browser, visit a Nintendo website (nintendo.com, accounts.nintendo.com, etc.).
  2. Select your nickname/user icon in the upper-right part of the page.
  3. Select Sign out at the bottom of the list of options to sign out of your Nintendo Account.
    • To sign out from multiple devices and browsers, visit accounts.nintendo.com, go to Sign-In and Security settings in your profile, then View your Sign-In History. You can sign out of all devices or select specific devices that you’ve visited in the past 30 days.
  4. If you have linked a Nintendo Network ID, Google account, or Apple ID to your Nintendo Account, make sure that the PC or mobile device is signed out of those as well.
    • For Google and/or Apple ID - go to the site(s) you have linked to your Nintendo Account, and log out of them individually. If you do not know how to log out of a specific website, please visit their Help area for assistance.
  5. If you need assistance signing back in, please see How to Sign In to a Nintendo Account.
