In this case, the updated setting would automatically show the name of the account you’ve selected. You could also switch between accounts right there in the settings menu. This would make it easier to see at a glance which account is active for various Google services and preferences.

While this change seems minor, it could improve the user experience by making it easier to distinguish between different accounts used on the phone. This can be particularly helpful for people who manage multiple accounts for work, personal use, or other reasons.
Currently, it’s unknown whether this update will be exclusive to Android 15 or if it will eventually come to older Android versions. Testers have tried to activate the feature on Android 14 without success, which suggests that it may be limited to devices running the latest Android version.
As someone who uses multiple Google accounts on her Android device, with different profiles, I’m interested in this potential change. It can sometimes be confusing to quickly identify which account is active in settings. This update would simplify account management. If it proves useful, hopefully it will eventually be rolled out to older Android versions as well.
