A recognized device and an active session are different records. Signing out ends a session; a trusted-device choice can remain valid until it expires, is revoked or a security check requires fresh verification.

Review access

  1. Open Account.
  2. Under Active sessions, review the current session and other available sessions.
  3. Use Sign out or Sign out everywhere else when appropriate.
  4. Under Recognized devices, review the displayed trust status and date.
  5. Choose Forget device to remove that device's recognition/trust.

Do not approve a device you do not control. A shared/public computer should not be treated like your personal device.

Why verification can return

Trust is tied to the account and browser cookie. A private browser, cleared cookies, another profile, expired/revoked trust, a password/email change or an unusual sign-in context can require a new verification. Browser and PWA storage can also differ.

A device being recognized does not grant workspace access or bypass an administrator's security policy. Complete the method offered by your own account rather than disabling security to avoid a prompt. If trust appears to be lost repeatedly in the same browser, tell support the browser/profile and sign-in sequence, without cookies, codes or passwords.
