How to Log Out of All Devices: Spotify, Netflix and More
If you shared a login, lost a phone or suspect a break-in, signing out everywhere is one of the quickest fixes.
By Siddharth ShankarUpdated October 21, 2026Most services let you end every active session at once. On Spotify, use the Sign out everywhere page on your account site, which does not include partner devices such as speakers, consoles and TVs. On Netflix, choose Sign out of all devices in account settings. It can take up to 8 hours to take effect and signs out your own device too. After signing out, change your password and turn on two-step verification.
Your email is the key to most of your accounts. Has it already leaked?

Signed-in sessions stay alive for a long time. A phone you sold, a laptop at a friend’s house or a hacked session can keep access to your account. Signing out everywhere ends them all at once.
Spotify
Spotify’s support page says to use the Sign out everywhere page on your Spotify account site, then confirm. This signs you out of mobile, tablet, web player and desktop devices at once. It does not include partner devices such as speakers, games consoles and TVs. For those, open your apps page and choose Remove Access.
Netflix
A How-To Geek guide describes the web steps: go to Netflix.com, open your profile and account page, scroll to Settings, click Sign out of all devices and confirm. On the iOS or Android app, open the menu, go to Account, then tap Sign out of all devices and confirm.
The guide says the change can take up to 8 hours to take effect on all devices. It also signs out your own device, so you must log in again wherever you want to use the account.

Google and other accounts
For Google, see how to sign out of Google on all devices. For others, look for settings with names like Where you are logged in, Active sessions, Devices, or Sign out everywhere under security or privacy settings.
Why it matters
- You sold or gave away a device.
- You shared your password with a family member or ex-partner.
- You lost a phone.
- You suspect your account is being used by someone else. See account takeover warning signs.
- You used a public or shared computer.
A routine to follow
1Sign out everywhere
Use the service’s option, as described above.
2Change your password
A new password stops anyone using an old one. Make it unique.
3Turn on two-step verification
Use an authenticator app where possible.
4Remove unknown devices and apps
Check partner devices and connected apps.
5Review login history
Look for places and devices you do not recognise.
6Repeat after any scare
Do the same for your email first, because it resets other accounts.
A checklist of places to look
- Email accounts: the most important, because they reset everything else.
- Banking and payment apps.
- Social media and messaging apps.
- Streaming services you share with others.
- Shopping accounts that store card details.
- Cloud storage and photo libraries.
Shared logins
If several people use one login, signing out everywhere will log everyone out. Tell them first, and consider giving each person their own profile or account. Shared passwords are hard to track and easy to lose.
What “sign out everywhere” cannot do
Signing out ends logged-in sessions, but it does not remove access that was granted by other means. Third-party apps connected to your account, saved passwords on other devices and recovery details that a thief has already added can all survive a sign-out. After signing out, review connected apps and your recovery email and phone number.
When to do it
Make it part of a regular review, and always do it after a scare: a lost phone, a phishing click, a breach notice or a strange login alert. It takes a minute per service and removes a surprising amount of risk.
Keep a list
A short list of the accounts that matter, with the link to each service’s sign-out or security page, saves time when you are under pressure. Store it in your password manager.
