Mac pro keeps logging out everywhere in google chrome

Hi everyone,


I use Google Chrome in Macbook Pro. For some reason, my accounts are logged out every time I left the websites, yes I select the keep me signed in option too. I saw other entries saying that the same problem happens with Safari as well so I'm guessing it's an Apple problem rather than the browser. I also can't add more than one gmail accounts to my gmail which is also very frustrating. I have to enter my password each time and when I try to add another gmail account it looks successful at first. Than when I refresh the page it's not there anymore. This is very frustrating and I am very surprised this problem still occurs after many complaints. Any help would be extremely appreciated!

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 15.4

a little unclear what exactly are you talking about: "my accounts are logged out every time I left the websites" (?)


What websites?


Turn off the Application Firewall if you turned it on...




Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/VPN/Anti-Virus

all known to cause issues on the macOS



verify you have not turned on all the nanny options that block javascript, or cookies in your browsers— poke around in your browser>settings

I use Safari Version 18.5 (20621.2.5.11.8) on Sequoia 15.5


Websites like Banks, Financial Institutions. Governmental Financial Website, and other Secure websites often employ a " Log Out for Inactive "


This is done for Security Reasons and totally expected


As from Google Chrome versus Apple Safari web browser


Google Chrome is will designed by the Developers to do what it does


To quote contributor @ John Galt


" There's nothing wrong with Brave. It's Chrome without the Google. I use it for certain websites and it works fine on Macs and iOS devices. There are other Chromium-based browsers as well; I'm just not as familiar with them.


If efficiency (power efficiency, resource utilization, performance optimization) is important to you, then nothing comes anywhere close to Safari. Apple specifically developed Safari for those purposes as well as other no-compromise requirements such as standards compliance, privacy, iOS / macOS integration... all things that matter to Apple and Apple's customers.


The essence of your concern was memory utilization, and it's no secret that Google will greedily take all of it to itself.


Cant just leave it quit on my mac?


That won't help because we cannot install Chrome on a Mac without installing Google. To be blunt about it Chrome is the Trojan that infects your Mac with Google. Google doesn't really care about Chrome; it's your personal information they're after. It's the closest thing to a macOS "virus" that there has ever been, or will ever be. The only significant difference it and a true "computer virus" is that Google is hiding in plain sight, and it is easily removed. "
