Although this option was already available in countries like the United States, it has only recently arrived in our country. Now you can change your Google email address. So, if you had a compromising email like tumorenito19@gmail.com, you can now change it and use it without embarrassment. However, keep in mind that once you change it, you won't be able to make any further changes for 12 months. How to change your Gmail address On both computers and mobile devices (Android or iOS), you'll need to follow these steps to change your address: - Go to your account, then to personal information. - Click on Email and then on your Google account email. - Once there, click on Change Google account email. - Enter the new username you want to use. Keep in mind that it cannot be a name that already exists or that someone used in the past and then deleted. - Click on “Change email.” And when it asks if you want to change it, click “Yes, change email.” Now you'll have your new Google account, and the old one will become an alternate account. This means that if you continue to receive emails at the old address, they will still arrive at the new one. You won't lose your photos, files, or subscriptions even if you change it. But before you do, it's best to take a look at the following recommendations. Recommendations: As Google warns in its announcement, there may be some problems with its features if you change the address to one that also ends in @gmail.com. Before changing it, Google recommends checking if: - You use a Chromebook: back up your data before changing the address. Once you've done that, you'll have to delete the old account and add it again to your Chromebook with the new address. - You use the “Sign in with Google” button on sites other than Google. That is, anywhere, whether it's a social network, an online store, or the gym's website. You'll need to change your address in that third-party application. If this doesn't work, remove the connection to this app from https://myaccount.google.com/connections.
