</Frame>

Sign out from the [account menu](/help/account-settings/managing-your-profile). This ends your session in the current browser.

1. Click your **avatar** in the top corner of Chief to open the account menu.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the menu.
3. Click **Sign out** (the row with the log-out icon).

You are returned to the signed-out view. To get back in, click **Log in** and [request a Magic Link](/help/getting-started/creating-your-account-signing-in) by email.

<Note>
  ℹ️ **Good to Know:** Signing out only affects the browser you are using. If you are signed in on another device or browser, you stay signed in there. To unlink a [paired device](/help/meetings-live-sessions/pairing-managing-devices-updating-the-app), use **Settings → Devices** and revoke it.
</Note>

## Change the email on your account

Your email address is shown at the top of the account menu, under your name. It is read-only in the app, so there is no field to edit it yourself.

To change the email on your account, email Chief support at **[support@chief.bot](mailto:support@chief.bot)** from your current address and tell them the new address you want to use. The team will move your account over.

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="I clicked Sign out but I am still signed in. What happened?">
    Try refreshing the page. If you remain signed in, clear the site cookies for Chief in your browser and reload. A second tab that was already open can also keep a stale session until it is refreshed.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I signed up with the wrong email. Can I just make a new account?">
    You can, but your [projects](/help/projects-sharing-teams/what-is-a-project), Library, and history stay with the original account. To keep your data, ask support to change the email instead of starting over.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I never got the Magic Link to sign back in.">
    Check your spam folder and confirm you entered the same email you registered with. You can request a new link from the login screen. If it still does not arrive, [contact support](/help/help-feedback-whats-new/getting-help-in-chief).
