How to Check Logged-in Devices on Binance and Force Log Out Unfamiliar IPs

Many Binance users don't remember the "Device Management" feature until something happens to their account. In fact, taking just 2 minutes a week to check your logged-in devices list can help you spot the early signs of account compromise. This article explains how to view your devices, how to force log out unfamiliar ones, and how to interpret each field. You can view the full device list through the Binance Official Website, and there is also a simplified "My Devices" page in the Binance Official App; Apple users can refer to the iOS Installation Tutorial.

Where is Device Management?

Web Browser Path

Log in to binance.com.
Click your avatar in the top right corner → "Security".
Scroll down → "Account Activity".
Click "Manage" to enter the device list.

App Path

Open the Binance App.
Tap "Account" at the bottom → Avatar.
"Security" → "Device Management".
Here you will see all active devices.

The information displayed in both paths is basically the same, though the web version offers slightly more detail.

What Information is Shown in the Device List?

Every device that has logged in will be displayed as a single row, containing:

1. Device Name and Icon

Desktop Icon: PC login.
Mobile Icon: Mobile App login.
Tablet Icon: Tablet login.
Device Model: e.g., iPhone 15 Pro, Samsung SM-G998, Windows Chrome.

2. Login Time

Last Active Time
Format: 2026-04-08 15:42:17 (UTC+0) or local time.
Currently Active: Displays "Current Session".

3. IP Address and Location

IP Address: e.g., 203.xxx.xxx.xxx.
Location: Country, City.
VPN / Proxy Tag: Known proxy IPs will be tagged.

4. Action Buttons

Trust Device (for commonly used devices).
Remove / Force Logout.

How to Determine If a Device is Yours

Characteristics of Your Own Devices

Device Model: The phone or PC models you are familiar with.
IP Location: The city where your usual network is located.
Login Time: Matches your actual usage times.
Browser Version: The browser you regularly use.

Danger Signals from Unfamiliar Devices

Unfamiliar Model (A device you don't own).
Unfamiliar Region (A country you've never been to).
Abnormal Time (Logged in while you were sleeping).
Frequent logins from multiple unknown IPs.
Newly added "Unknown Device".

If even one signal is off, force log it out immediately.

How to Force Log Out a Device

Log Out a Single Device

Find the target device in the device list.
Click the "Remove" or "Force Logout" button on the right.
Confirm in the pop-up window.
Done — the session for this device is immediately invalidated.

The device that was forcefully logged out will need to re-enter the password + 2FA to log in next time, effectively kicking them out of your account.

One-Click Log Out of All Devices (Except Current)

If you suspect your account has been compromised but don't want to delete them one by one:

Click "Log Out of All Other Devices" or "Remove All Other Devices" at the top of the device list.
Confirm.
All devices except the current session are instantly invalidated.

This operation is highly effective; even if you're unsure which device belongs to the hacker, you can clear them all at once.

Can the Web Version Log Out the App?

Yes. The web version can log out the App session, and vice versa. They share the same session management system.

What is a Trusted Device?

A Trusted Device is a mechanism designed to "reduce verification frequency".

After Marking as Trusted

This device will no longer ask for 2FA upon login (or will do so less frequently).
This device will no longer trigger "New Device Login Notifications".
This device is considered for "long-term use".

Suitable Scenarios

Your primary laptop.
Your long-term personal phone.
Your desktop at home.

Unsuitable Scenarios

Public computers (Internet cafes, company PCs, libraries).
Friends' computers.
Someone else's phone.
Any device you do not fully control.

Security Risks of Trusted Devices: If a trusted device is stolen, an attacker can bypass 2FA to access your account. Therefore, only genuinely secure devices should be marked as trusted.

The Proper Inspection Routine

Daily: Glance at Notifications

Check for new login alert emails or push notifications. No alerts = no new logins = safe.

Weekly: Check the Device List

Open the Device Management page and quickly review all active devices. Immediately log out any unfamiliar ones.

Monthly: Clear Historical Devices

Devices that "logged in recently but are no longer active" should also be removed periodically. For example, old phones, replaced computers, or temporarily used browsers.

Before and After Traveling: Extra Checks

Before traveling: Log in with any new devices you plan to use on the trip.
During the trip: Pay close attention to notifications for every login.
After returning: Clear out sessions from temporarily used devices, such as hotel computers.

What to Do If You See an "Unknown Device"

"Unknown Device" can mean two things:

Possibility 1: System Recognition Failure

The User-Agent of your browser was modified by a VPN or extension.
The system failed to recognize it → Displays as "Unknown Device".
Not necessarily a hack.

Possibility 2: Actually Hacked

Someone logged in using an automated tool.
The tool did not provide a standard User-Agent.
The system displays "Unknown Device" + an unfamiliar IP.

How to Differentiate:

The time matches your own usage + you were using a VPN/proxy → Probably you.
The time doesn't match + completely unfamiliar IP → 100% Suspicious.

It's better to wrongly delete than to miss one. The cost of force logging out is very low; a mistaken deletion just means you'll have to log back in next time.

Device Management + Working with Other Security Features

Device Management is not isolated; it should be used in tandem with other security features:

Combination 1: Login Notifications

Receive a notification → Check the device list → Confirm if it was you.
Linking these two actions forms a complete detection process.

Combination 2: Google Authenticator

An unfamiliar device cannot access your account even with a password.
However, adding a layer of device checks provides thicker defense.

Combination 3: IP Whitelist (API)

Although the account itself doesn't have an IP whitelist...
API Keys support IP whitelisting, allowing you to restrict API calls to specific IPs.
This is crucial for programmatic traders.

Combination 4: Freeze Account

Detect an anomaly → Freeze immediately.
During the freeze, all operations on all devices are blocked.
Then you can slowly clear out unfamiliar devices.

Why My Phone Sometimes Doesn't Show Up in the Device List

Common Reasons:

Reason 1: Session Expired

If the App hasn't been opened for too long, the session automatically logs out. When you open it again, the system doesn't count it as an "active device." It will reappear once you log in again.

Reason 2: Abnormal Device Name Display

Your phone might display as "Android Device" or "iOS Device" without a specific model. This is because Binance failed to retrieve the detailed info. It does not affect usage.

Reason 3: Device List Only Shows the Last N Devices

Binance generally only shows recently active devices (e.g., within the last 30 days or up to 50 devices). Very old login records are omitted from the list, but they have already been automatically logged out, so they pose no risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will force logging out alert the other party?

A: No. A forcefully logged-out device will not receive a notification; they will simply find they need to log in again next time they try to operate. This is designed to prevent tipping off hackers.

Q: Can Device Management show the other party's password or 2FA code?

A: No. Device Management only shows device metadata (model, IP, time) and cannot see any sensitive credentials. Binance itself does not store plaintext passwords either.

Q: What if I change phones after marking my main device as trusted?

A: The trusted tag on the old phone remains. You must manually remove the trusted tag from the old phone in Device Management, and then mark your new phone as trusted. You need to do this step both before and after changing phones.

Q: Will multiple accounts sharing one phone conflict with each other?

A: Binance's device management is independent for each account. It's the same physical phone, but it will show up in the device list for Account A and the device list for Account B. Each account must be managed independently.
