Deleting your account
Last updated: September 25, 2026
Your How We Work account can be deleted entirely within the app. No enquiry is needed.
Steps
- Open the app
- Open Settings from the home screen
- Choose Account
- Choose Delete account
- A confirmation screen appears. Read it, type the word it asks for, then tap Delete account
What happens when you delete
This cannot be undone.
What is removed
- Your account (email address and display name)
- Everything you have written
- The share links you created, and the record of which items each included
- The record of anyone having responded "Got it"
About share links already issued
When you delete, every share link you have issued stops working. Anyone you have already sent a link to will no longer be able to open the page.
If that matters, we suggest letting them know before you delete.
About payment
- Subscriptions are not cancelled automatically. Please cancel from Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions on your iPhone before deleting your account.
- Refunds for amounts already paid follow Apple's rules. Please make refund requests to Apple.
Deleting the app alone does not delete your account
Removing the app from your iPhone leaves your account and everything stored in it in place.
To remove it completely, delete your account using the steps above, then delete the app.
If you cannot open the app
If you have changed devices or otherwise cannot open the app to delete your account, please email us at the address below from the email address you use to sign in. We treat a message from that address as confirmation that it is you, and will then delete your account.
