카카오톡 로그아웃Why do I need to log out of KakaoTalk on my smartphone? There are two cases where logging out is necessary. The first is when you lose or break your smartphone and borrow a family member’s or friend’s cell phone to log in to KakaoTalk for a while. At this time, it is necessary because the owner of the cell phone must log out of the KakaoTalk they were using, and users who borrowed it for a while must also log out to log in to KakaoTalk with the original owner’s account after use. The second time is when you change your smartphone. If you change your smartphone, run the KakaoTalk app, and log in, you can continue using KakaoTalk on the new phone. However, on the phone you used before, a usage record remains and you can check the conversation history, so to protect your personal information, you can use KakaoTalk separately. It is recommended that you log out.
So why do I need to log out of the KakaoTalk program on my PC? The reason is that if my KakaoTalk account is automatically logged in when I boot the computer, someone other than me can see my KakaoTalk records. Usually, you use a public computer at work or home, but in this case, you have to log out after using it. In this case, there is a way to log out of KakaoTalk remotely using a smartphone, so you can use it as a reference. You can also check on your phone whether you are currently logged in and using the computer, so after checking, if it is not you, be sure to log out of KakaoTalk remotely.
