You can log out of your Cash app account on all the devices it's connected to by changing your account pin. All you have to do is go to the app's privacy menu, then follow the on-screen instructions to reset your passcode.
I recently logged onto Cash app from a friend's phone and forgot to log out. My debit card details were on it, so I panicked a bit. However, I remembered that changing my pin would help me log out.
In case you want to know how to log out from your Cash app account, I've run through how I did this below.

Logging out of your cash app account on multiple devices doesn't take much work. However, the process to follow differs depending on whether you're using your phone or PC. I've run through both methods below.
To log out of Cash app from other devices via a phone:
Here's how a Cash app user can log out from a computer:
And voila! - when you now open the Cash app, you won't have to worry about your Cash app account is linked to any other devices. The other Cash app sessions will be terminated.
Being logged into the Cash app on more than one device isn't a good idea. Although you might think this will help you save time, your privacy could be invaded (if one of your devices gets stolen).
There are a couple of reasons why you may not be able to log out of your Cash app account. Usually, it's because the Cash app servers are down.
There's nothing you can do about this, other than wait for them to be up again. Also, you can find out whether this is the problem by going to the Cash app system status page.
Let's talk about some other fixes.
You're probably not aware of this, but if you haven't set the correct date and time, this can cause issues when connecting to the Cash app servers.
To fix this on your Android mobile device:
On iPhones:
On PCs:
On Macs:
Once done, try logging out of your account.
You should also rule out whether the Cash app's cache is corrupted. This usually happens when its temporary memory has been affected, for example, if there's too much data saved.
To fix this, you'll have to clear the apps' temporary data. You won't really lose anything important. Just keep in mind that you'll be automatically logged out of the app.
On iPhones:
On Androids:
If you have a VPN running, you probably know that your connection is being tunneled to a server abroad. This could cause problems when you try to connect to Cash app's servers, which could be why you can't log out of your account.
Fixing this problem is simple. All you have to do is turn your VPN off.
It won't hurt to try restarting your phone. Cash app may be glitching, so a restart should help clear it.
If it's a more complex Cash app glitch, you'll have to go ahead and do a force reboot.
On Androids, simply hold down the Power button for around 10 seconds. However, on iPhones, it gets a bit more complicated. Check out this guide.
When did you last update Cash app? Just like any other app, it needs to be regularly updated. If you haven't, you might be dealing with a buggy application.
You can update it by heading to your respective device's app store, searching for Cash app, and clicking the Update button.
I have some bad news for you if you still can't log out of your account. You could be dealing with an internal issue that the app team is not aware of. Contact Cash app support and tell them about what you're facing. Hopefully, they'll get back to you soon.
