Delete Account

You can permanently delete your Flaresat account at any time.

What gets deleted​

When you delete your account:

  • Your user profile is removed from Flaresat
  • Your device's push notification tokens are cleared
  • You are removed from all groups you were a member of

What is NOT deleted:

  • Map items (pins, routes, areas) you created, these remain on the shared map with your name replaced by "Deleted User"
  • Chat messages you sent, these remain in the group chat history with your name replaced by "Deleted User"

This is intentional: deleting historical map data or messages would corrupt the shared history that other team members depend on.

Can I recover a deleted account?​

No. Account deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. If you sign up again with the same email, it will be a brand-new account with no history.

What if I'm the only admin in a group?​

Before you can delete your account, you must leave any groups where you are the sole admin. To do that, first promote another member to ADMIN in Group Settings, then leave the group.

Contact help@flaresat.com if you need assistance transferring ownership before deleting.
