Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between deactivating and deleting?
Deactivation hides your account but keeps your data so you can come back. Deletion removes it permanently after a grace period.
Can I get my account back after deleting?
Usually only during the grace period (often 30 days) — logging in during that time cancels the deletion.
Does deleting the app delete my account?
No — uninstalling the app leaves your account and data in place. You must delete the account in settings.
