How to Use More Than One Google Account and Never Get Them Tangled Up

If you work with at least two Google Accounts (say one @gmail.com account and one G Suite account on your domain, or even two @gmail.com accounts), you know that while you are signed into one, it’s not so straightforward to sign into the other one from the same browser. It’s easy to get the two or more accounts all tangled up in such a way that, for example, when you expect to reach your second account’s Google Drive, you somehow wind up in the first ones’, eventually losing track of where you created which file.

The good news is: this doesn’t have to be this way; you have options!

DO:
You can use a different kind of browser for each account.
or
You can use a private incognito window to access your second account.
or
You can use separate Chrome Profiles -- the easiest and most convenient solution.
On a PC
On a Mac

DON’T:
Don’t add another account under your signed-in Google Account. This increases your chance for getting your Google Accounts confused.
