In this post, we will discuss how to sign out of Google Play on tv. Smart TVs are gaining popularity and most of them are Android Televisions.
You not only can watch TV channels on these TV but also you can access different apps and even browse the internet.

To use Google apps and to download apps from the Play store, you need to sign in with a Google username. Your Google account will be used across all the apps like Youtube, Google Play Music, Games, and others.
Why you should not use your Primary google account
But there is a drawback of adding your primary Google account to your Smart TV cause it will be synchronized and all the searces on youtube or Google apps will be shown on your main account.
If your family members search for something irrelevant to your job then those will be saved in your search history and you will be shown absurd suggestions on Google search or Youtube.
Also, there is an additional issue that if you have linked any payment account with your Google account then it can be misused or can be used unknowingly if you have kids at home.
Many people nowadays use many MOD APKs on their smart TVs to use apps that are not made for television. There are many APKs that are not present on the Play store and you install them individually by downloading APK files.
Our first instruction will be not using any MOD APK as it may harm and if you still feel like using them then don’t use them when you are logged in from your primary Google account. Because you may leak your sensitive information like name, dob, phone number, or payment information.
So my suggestions will be to use a fresh Google account that does not contain any sensitive information and you don’t use that on any of your devices.
