How do I delete my account?

Delete your account under Account & security. Cancel any subscription first. Deletion is permanent and the email is free to use again after about seven days.

Updated October 9, 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, you can simply 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 remaining data is fully anonymised within about seven days.
  • You can sign up again with the same email once the deletion is complete, which usually takes around seven days.

Deletion cannot be undone, even within those seven days.
