Some apps can't see Google accounts: "Account already exists on this device"

[par]

Hi,

Now that I’ve managed to add my Google Workspace account via microG, apps like Gmail and YouTube work as expected (i.e. I can choose which Google account I want to use from within those apps).

However, some other apps (e.g. Google Contacts, WhatsApp) cannot see those accounts:

If I click to “Add another account”, I get an error message “Account already exists on this device”.

Can anyone help?

See my response in the other thread you posted:

Installing gapps

It is not going to work. microG and Google apps (whether from Google, NikGapps, MindTheGapps or anywhere else) cannot co-exist. Installing them on a device with microG will cause unoredictable problems and is not going to work. What is the problem with WhatsApp? I use it on a ROM with microG built-in, and it works fine
