Are you ready to embark on a journey to successfully log out of your Mobile Legends: Bang Bang account? Whether you're looking to switch to a different account, protect your privacy, or simply take a break from the Land of Dawn, this comprehensive guide will walk you through every step. Let's get started!
How to Log Out of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (The Definitive Guide)
Logging out of Mobile Legends isn't always as straightforward as clicking a single "logout" button, due to the game's account binding system. However, with the right approach, you can easily manage your game sessions. This guide covers the most common methods for both Android and iOS devices.
Step 1: Understanding Account Binding – Your First Line of Defense!
Before you even think about logging out, it's absolutely crucial to understand account binding. Mobile Legends allows you to link your game progress to various third-party accounts (like Moonton, Facebook, Google Play Games, Apple ID, VK, TikTok). If your account isn't bound, you risk losing your progress when you log out or try to switch accounts!
Why is binding important? Imagine spending countless hours leveling up your heroes, collecting skins, and climbing the ranks, only to lose it all because your guest account wasn't linked! Binding ensures your progress is safely stored and can be retrieved later.
Quick Check: Is your account bound?
Open Mobile Legends.
Tap on your Avatar (profile picture) in the top-left corner of the main screen.
Tap on Account.
Under "Third-Party Account," check if your Moonton Account, Facebook, Google Play (Android) / Apple ID (iOS), VK, or TikTok are marked as "Connected." If not, make sure to connect at least one before proceeding!
Step 2: Accessing Your Account Settings – The Gateway to Disconnection
Once you've confirmed your account is safely bound (or bound it if it wasn't!), you can proceed to the logout process.
Launch Mobile Legends: Bang Bang: Find the MLBB icon on your device's home screen or app drawer and tap to open the game.
Navigate to Your Profile: From the main lobby screen, locate and tap on your Avatar (your profile picture) in the top-left corner. This will open your personal profile page.
Enter Account Settings: On your profile page, look for the "Account" tab on the left-hand side menu. Tap on it.
Step 3: Utilizing the "Account Center" for Comprehensive Management
The "Account Center" is where Moonton centralizes most of its account management features, including various logout options.
Access Account Center: Within the "Account" section, you'll see an option called "Account Center". Tap on it.
Explore Logout Options: Inside the Account Center, you'll typically find options related to account security and management. The most common logout methods are:
Sub-heading: "Switch Account"
This is the most common and recommended method if you intend to log in with a different MLBB account immediately.
Tapping "Switch Account" will present you with various login methods (Moonton Account, Google Play Games/Apple ID, Facebook, VK, TikTok).
Choose the platform associated with the account you wish to switch to.
You'll then be prompted to enter the credentials for that account. Once successfully logged in, the game will restart, and you'll be on the new account.
Important Note: If you only have one account and simply want to "log out" without switching to another, using "Switch Account" and then backing out or even closing the app might effectively log you out, but it's not a direct "log out" button. The game generally expects you to switch to another account rather than just signing off.
Sub-heading: "Device Management" (Logging Out from All Devices)
This option is particularly useful if you want to log out of your Mobile Legends account from all devices where it's currently logged in. This is a powerful security feature.
Tap on "Device Management."
You will usually see an option like "Log Out All."
Be cautious here! Tapping this will log out your account from all devices, including the one you are currently using. You will need to re-enter your Moonton account password or log in via a third-party account again on any device you wish to continue playing on. This can be a great way to secure your account if you suspect unauthorized access.
Confirm your action when prompted. The game will likely restart, and you'll be at the login screen.
Step 4: Alternative Logout Methods (When the Direct Approach Isn't There)
Sometimes, a direct "log out" button isn't immediately visible, or you might be looking for a more forceful disconnect.
Sub-heading: Clearing App Data (Android Only - Use with Extreme Caution!)
This is a drastic measure and should only be used if you're absolutely sure your account is bound and you're having persistent login issues or truly want to start fresh (though this won't delete your online progress).
Warning: Clearing app data will delete all local game data, including downloaded resources, settings, and potentially your current guest account if it's not bound.
Steps:
Go to your phone's Settings.
Navigate to Apps or Applications (the name may vary by device).
Find Mobile Legends: Bang Bang in the list of installed apps and tap on it.
Tap on Storage.
You'll see options for "Clear Cache" and "Clear Data" (or "Clear Storage").
Tap "Clear Data" (or "Clear Storage"). Confirm your action.
When you reopen Mobile Legends, it will be as if you're launching it for the very first time. You'll then be prompted to log in or create a new account.
Sub-heading: Uninstalling the App
While not a "logout" in the traditional sense, uninstalling the app will, of course, remove your current session.
Again, ensure your account is bound!
Simply long-press the Mobile Legends app icon on your home screen or in your app drawer and select "Uninstall" or drag it to the uninstall option.
Step 5: Verifying Your Logout
After attempting to log out using any of the methods above, it's always a good idea to verify.
Restart the Game: Close Mobile Legends completely (swipe it away from recent apps) and then reopen it.
Check Login Screen: If you've successfully logged out, you should be presented with the initial login screen, asking you to choose a login method or displaying a "Tap to Start" option that leads to a new account creation. If it automatically logs you back into your previous account, the logout was not successful, and you may need to try "Device Management" or "Clear Data."
