Deleting your account

The short version. Settings, Profile, scroll to the bottom, Delete account, type your password, confirm. Your account is deleted at once; if you were the last grown-up, the household and everything in it goes with you. Backups follow within thirty days.

Before you delete#

• Keep the calendar? Connect Google and switch on Show the AskBobbie calendar in Google; the family's things are then in your Google account and stay there after you delete. Or ask Bobbie to list the term and copy it.
• Keep the household for someone else? Invite them as a Parent from Settings, Family, and wait until they have joined.
• Unlink phones first if you would rather; it happens anyway.

Deleting#

1. Settings, Profile.
2. At the bottom, Delete account.
3. Type your password and confirm.

You are signed out and the account is gone. Nothing needs to be cancelled; there is no subscription during early access.

What goes#

Your login, your name, your round-ups and settings, your linked phone, your Google connection (and Bobbie tells Google to revoke it), and your conversations. If you were the last grown-up: the household, its children, the calendar, the lists, the letters and photos, all of it.

If other grown-ups remain, the household stays with them, and things you added stay on the family's calendar because they are the family's.

What is really happening#

Deletion is immediate in the live database. Backups are kept for disaster recovery and are overwritten within thirty days, after which nothing remains. The privacy notice says the same thing in longer words, and there is a public page on deleting your account that Google and Meta ask us to publish.
