When you first sign up to Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, you can either create a new account or use a social media account as a login. You have a name and a player ID.
Now, if you want to sign in to another account, start fresh or let a friend log in for example, you will first need to sign out. Thankfully, this is possible, although it feels like the option is hidden deep into the menus.
Below, we've put together a short guide for signing out of the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite mobile game. If you want to check out some more guides we've done, check out our dedicated area here!
