Sorry... people ‘should’ be done with them, but that is my bias towards security.

Your email is probably linked with just about everything you do. I would suggest you ensure it has a 16 character random password with 2 factor auth. If someone gets in, they own everything so treat it accordingly.

Also, what apps beyond banking or health do you log out of?

Accounts just seem to accrue. My password manager has over 500 items. I tend to uninstall phone apps I don't use after a few months and reinstall them as needed. I also hop between a computer and phone and iPad or between app and website, each requiring me to login again.

I also appreciate being able to log into an account on an untrusted computer without having to log into my email.
