Hi, I have had my google account hooked up to my phone for ages and im happy with it. Then I go and add my google account to my friends touch pad. Probably a mistake but idk.
I am wondering if he can see anything I am doing on my phone e.g. Emails, Downloads, Music, Videos, Pics and so on.?
Also if there is anyway of taking it off him without touching his touch pad ;)... Like if I change my google account password will it kick him out?
Thanks Scott.

Change your password on the Google Account, and you'll be fine.
 
all data that is synced through google account can be viewed on both devices. by all means email will be viewed its an email account. as stated change your password look around in settings try to decommission the device hope this helps
 
I will change the password, and hopefully log him out when I next see him... As you mentioned only things synced to my google account will be visible on both devices. But i do not sync... Movies, Music, Pictures... well anything. Apart from contacts and he can have them.
 
Google accounts are free, why would you ever try to share one with a friend? The only reason I could see for sharing would be for a parent monitoring there child's account. What gives?
