Google Account Switcher Firefox

Google Account Switcher

By: Peter
Automatically switches to your preferred Google account on any Google service. Set a default account or configure per-service overrides — no more manually switching accounts.

Features & Capabilities

If you use multiple Google accounts, you know the pain of constantly being signed into the wrong one. Google Account Switcher fixes this by automatically adding the correct authuser parameter to Google URLs, so you always land on the right account.

Features:

  • One-click account import — Pull your signed-in Google accounts directly from your browser session.
  • Default account — Set a global default that applies across all Google services.
  • Per-service overrides — Use your work account for Gmail and Cloud Console, your personal account for YouTube and Photos, or any combination you need.
  • Global on/off toggle — Quickly disable redirects without losing your configuration.
  • Lightweight — No external requests, no tracking, no background overhead. All settings are stored locally.
Supported services: Gmail, Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Calendar, Meet, Chat, Cloud Console, Maps, Photos, Contacts, Keep, Groups, and more.

How it works: When you navigate to a Google service without an account already specified in the URL, the extension injects the authuser parameter for your preferred account. If you've manually switched accounts or the URL already specifies one, the extension stays out of the way.

Privacy: This extension stores your configuration locally and makes no external network requests. Your account information never leaves your browser.

Is Google Account Switcher Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Google Account Switcher requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Google Account Switcher is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
