I am using two Google accounts on Parallel. One is permanently saved on the device. Another one is my "real" Google account which I use as my mailbox, etc. - I do not have it configured at my device.

I am pretty happy with this setup, with one exception. I am using my "real" account to log into many apps I use. What I really miss is ability to choose non-saved account when clicking "Continue with Google" - just to type my account/password and 2FA stuff. I workaround this by adding and instantly removing my "real" account. This is pretty ugly approach and not always works (I am getting instantly logged out of some of the apps).

Is that any way to provide Google credentials without permanent adding the account to the device?

Android version is 9, if it matters.

    "This is pretty ugly approach and not always works (I am getting instantly logged out of some of the apps)." Yeah, I tried something like this recently and it was even worse -- when I logged out the secondary account, a bunch of stuff stopped working, and I had to reboot the device to get it responding again. It seems this case is poorly written and not tested well. Commented yesterday

There is no way to do this unless the app offers a way to sign in to Google through a WebView instance. Apps using the Google Sign-in SDK will need the Google account to be present on your device in order to sign in, and you will be logged out automatically once you remove the Google account from the device.
