How to Check Devices Signed In to Your Google Account and Sign Out Suspicious Sessions
If you got a new-device alert, sold an old phone, or simply want to review where your Google Account is still signed in, the most useful path is the Your devices section inside Google Account security settings. From there, you can inspect recent sessions, sign out of devices you do not recognize, and move into a broader security review when needed [F1][F2].
Quick answer
Open myaccount.google.com and go to Security [F1].
In Your devices, select Manage all devices [F1].
Review recent phones, computers, browsers, and sessions.
Open anything unfamiliar and choose Sign out [F1].
Then review Recent security activity, update your password if needed, and confirm 2-Step Verification plus backup access [F2][F3][F4][F6].

When this review matters most
Use this workflow right away if you received a sign-in alert you do not recognize, logged in on a shared computer, lost a phone, sold an old device, or suspect you clicked a phishing link.
What `Your devices` can and cannot tell you
Google may show multiple sessions with the same device name. Its help page explains that this can mean one device with multiple sessions or multiple devices using the same name [F1]. If you are unsure, the safer move is to sign out of every session with that name and sign back in only on devices you control.
This is important because labels like Chrome or Linux can look suspicious even when they come from a browser session you started yourself.
How to sign out of a suspicious session
Open the device or session, review the visible details, and use Sign out if you do not recognize it [F1]. If the device is yours but was used in a risky environment, signing out is still reasonable before you refresh the rest of your account security.
What to do after signing out
Signing out is the first step, not the full cleanup. Google also recommends reviewing recent security events and securing the account if you find activity that was not yours [F2][F5].
A practical order is:
review Recent security activity [F2];
change the password if there is real doubt;
confirm 2-Step Verification stays enabled [F3];
verify backup codes and recovery details [F4][F6].
Mistakes to avoid
signing out of only one repeated session name when several copies appear [F1];
changing the password but skipping the device review;
relying only on SMS instead of keeping a backup method ready [F3][F4].
