How do I delete my account?

Delete your account under Account & security. Cancel any subscription first. Deletion is permanent, and you can use the same email again once the deletion is complete.

Updated October 28, 2026

Before you delete

  • Cancel your subscription. Deleting the account does not cancel a Pro subscription in the App Store, Google Play or Paddle. See How do I cancel my Knowunity Pro subscription?
  • Save anything you need. Your uploads, folders, streak and progress are removed and cannot be restored.
  • If you only want a break, sign out instead.

Delete the account in the app

  1. Open your profile and tap the gear icon to open Settings.
  2. Tap Account & privacy, then Account & security.
  3. Scroll to the Danger zone and tap Delete account.
  4. Choose a reason and confirm with Delete my account.

What happens next

  • Your profile and uploads disappear immediately.
  • The rest of your data is anonymised once the deletion is complete.
  • You can sign up again with the same email once the deletion is complete. If you try earlier, the app shows This email belongs to an account that's being deleted. You can sign up again with the same email once the deletion is fully complete, which takes 7 to 10 days.

Deletion cannot be undone, and support cannot restore a deleted account.

I cannot sign in to delete the account

Recover access first, see I cannot sign in to my account. If that is impossible, contact support from the email address on the account so that we can verify it is yours.
