Are you annoyed with the continuous pop from websites, asking to sign in with your Google account. It becomes a menace to browse on Chrome and switch tabs when the automatic sign-in overlay pops up.

The good news is that it can be disabled, but it's not an easy to find setting. Let's look at how to disable these pop-ups

Android​

  • Login into your Google account setting - Google Account
  • Search for "Sign-in prompts" in the search box

  • Disable (toggle) the setting "Allow Google to display a sign-in prompt on Android"

Chrome​

In Chrome, this setting is hidden nicely and difficult to find.

  • Go to Google Chrome settings
  • Search for "identity services" in the search box

  • Click on "Site Setting" at the bottom of the list
  • Next scroll down to the heading "Content"

  • Under that heading you will see the last option as "Additional Content Setting"
  • Expand the "Additional Content Setting" using the downwards arrow
  • Scroll down to "Third-party sign-in" setting and click it
  • In the next screen, select "Block sign-in prompts from identity services"
