Removing old devices from your Google / Play account?

[slipd]

Hi guys,

As above. I think something has changed because you used to be able just to remove them, indeterminately. Then I remember reading something about unused devices on your account being automatically removed after a set period of time, 90 days I recall?

Anyway, this is a snapshot of some of the devices I use and have used in the past year. The Xiaomi for example is long gone and hasn't been used for well over 90 days and yet it is still showing on my account. I think I've managed to stop it appearing on my drop-down list every time I buy/add a new app etc., but I'd like it gone altogether really...

Thoughts?

I've only been able to "hide" them. Searched high and low recently to find what you want, but had no luck.

Thanks! I think it was possible, as of around 2/3 years ago - I had around 5/6 Galaxy's at one point for one reason or another and I remember being able to actually delete them from my account after I'd finished with them.

I don't think it's possible then.

Yes, you definitely were able to remove them in the past as I had about 6 Pixel 2XLs before I got one without issues and they were removed I *think* by me. None of my previous devices prior to 2018 are visible.

I definitely don't appear to have remove as an option, just Edit and Update - from memory...
