How to remove yourself from WhatsApp completely. How to remove WhatsApp app on phone or PC

On this page we will tell you how to completely remove WhatsApp from your phone - both the application itself and your user account.

How to remove Whatsapp on Android

Delete the application

Method 1: If you are thinking about how to delete WhatsApp, then you need to take three simple steps:

  1. Find the application on your phone.
  2. Press and hold the application icon.
  3. Click on the cross that appears or the “delete” button.

Method 2: The same can be done through the menu: “Settings” - “All applications” - look for what you need:

Deleting an account

Even if the WhatsApp program is no longer on your smartphone, this does not mean that your account has also been deleted. For these purposes, you need to go to the settings of the application itself. Therefore, if you are going to delete your account, the program must be installed.

In the settings, select " Account", then " Delete account" All you have to do is enter your phone number (remember that you need to follow the rules for entering in the international format) and that’s it - the task is completed.

!Important: If you suddenly accidentally deleted WhatsApp, then the application itself can be installed back at any time. But in the case of an account, everything is more complicated - the process of deleting it is irrevocable. Therefore, you need to think carefully before deciding to take such a step!

Delete the application

Removing WhatsApp from iPhone is also easy: hold down the application icon on the desktop and click on the cross.

Deleting an account

Important! This action is irreversible and the data will be completely deleted.

Go to Application Settings, “Account” item and then everything makes sense:

Below are the main signs that the user has cleared his mobile phone of the messenger.

    Hello. On February 21, I deleted my account and the WhatsApp application, almost a month and a half has passed, but my friends say that I am still on WhatsApp, although there is no photo or date of my last visit. What else can I do to remove myself from WhatsApp forever and never interact with anyone again? I absolutely don’t like the app and I don’t want there to be even the slightest hint that I once had it. ↓

  3. Vika 03/22/2019 at 16:04

    Hello. Bought new phone. I downloaded WhatsApp to a new one and moved the SIM card. And that's what I noticed. One of my contacts on my old phone says: hi, I use WhatsApp, but on the new one it’s completely different, it says: available. Please explain why this happened ↓

      Yes, maybe because of this. ↓

    2. Nadezhda 08/11/2018 at 08:50

      Good afternoon This is the story: I deleted WhatsApp for one number and didn’t use it for 2.5 months. As a result, it was removed. I read that this is normal. Please answer, can I restore it now? Thanks for your answer in advance ↓

  30. Yulia 07/30/2018 at 00:18

  31. Svetlana 07/18/2018 at 06:59

  33. Elina 06/15/2018 at 20:21

    Hello. If a person deleted WhatsApp, will the messages I send be displayed with 1 gray tick or two? Now I have two displayed. And I want to understand: the person simply did not read the message or did not log into WhatsApp or turned off his phone or deleted WhatsApp. Thank you. ↓

    1. Site administration 06/16/2018 at 16:44

      If your interlocutor deleted Vtsap, then the messages will be displayed with 1 check mark. If there are two of them, then he most likely simply did not read the message. ↓

    Hello! Question, I didn’t write any messages to the person, but he appeared in my individual chat, what does it mean that he wrote a message and then deleted it (while I was reading it)? ↓

    1. Site administration 06/12/2018 at 12:53

      Most likely, this is exactly what happened; it is also possible that this person was spamming and the administration of the messenger itself deleted him. ↓

  35. Anastasia 06/05/2018 at 11:59

    Good afternoon! My husband has deleted the WhatsApp application for two months now, today I noticed that there is no profile photo and the date when he last logged in. Does this mean that he just blocked me or the WhatsApp period has expired? ↓

Help me figure it out, most likely the user deleted my account or blocked me? ↓

    1. Site administrator 03/13/2018 at 16:12

      There is no such visibility in the application - account deletion. In any case, there are 3 options: you are blocked, he deleted the account, there is no Internet. ↓

The time of visit is visible two days ago and on the contact it says Hello, I’m using WhatsApp and the date. Could this mean that the person deleted the application?

  62. Victoria 12/16/2017 at 02:34

    Good afternoon, tell me, if you delete your WhatsApp profile, will the person who was accidentally called see the missed call? ↓

    1. Site administration 12/16/2017 at 09:02

      Good afternoon yes, he will see it, since the operation has already been carried out ↓

  63. Alina 12/03/2017 at 06:31

    Tell me please! If I changed the phone number in my account, will this help me unblock the other person? My account remains the same. ↓

    1. Site administrator 12/03/2017 at 15:38

      DD! No tk account previous ↓

  64. MB 01.12.2017 at 21:29

    Hello. If a person shows up in my contacts list, does that necessarily mean I show up in theirs? ↓

    1. Site administrator 03.12.2017 at 13:09

      DD! Your contact list is displayed. ↓

  65. Alice 11/25/2017 at 12:48 pm

    The subscriber is not in the contact list, but is listed as blocked. I log in from another number, but this subscriber is not in the WhatsApp application at all. Then why do I see it among my blocked ones? ↓

    1. Site administrator 26.11.2017 at 16:28

      Good afternoon. Do you download updates to the program? ↓

  66. Yana 11/15/2017 at 5:56 pm

    Why does a person have no status? ↓

    1. Site administrator 11/16/2017 at 11:26 am

      DD! He has an old version of WhatsApp, or does not have access to the network. ↓

  67. Irina 11/15/2017 at 14:34

    Hello. On one of my numbers I hit WhatsApp almost a year ago. And today I left in one group, supposedly I left it. Although I don’t have WhatsApp. How can this be? ↓

    1. Site administration 11/15/2017 at 15:58

      Good afternoon Most likely, you only deleted the application, not your account. ↓

      1. Irina 11/15/2017 at 16:08

        Yes, I just deleted the application. but why after 10 months in the group did a recording come out claiming that I left the group? ↓

  68. madi 08.11.2017 at 08:41

    The status is visible. The photo is not visible. The message reaches two ticks. But he was not visible when he was visiting. Tell me please? He deleted or blocked... ↓

    1. Site administration 12.11.2017 at 16:27

      Hello! Most likely, the subscriber has a program installed that hides his data about his last visit. If you see two checkmarks, it means you are NOT in the block ↓

  69. Yana 10.26.2017 at 11:59

    If there is no status in WhatsApp contacts, then this could mean that the person deleted WhatsApp? ↓

    1. Site administration 10.26.2017 at 16:18

      Good afternoon. Yes. ↓

  70. Miya 10.15.2017 at 16:14

    Hello! Please tell me, if I delete my WhatsApp account, will messages that were sent by mistake (they were marked with only one checkbox) be delivered? ↓

    1. Site administration 10/18/2017 at 15:27

      Good afternoon You don't have to delete your account. As long as the message is not read and there is only one checkmark on it, you can. In this case, the person you sent the message to will not even know about its existence! But this works if the message is marked with only ONE checkmark! ↓

  71. Wapadar 09/21/2017 at 16:55

    Hello, if a person accidentally deleted the WhatsApp program from his pocket, but then this person registered again, but with a different number, and can his old number go online after 2 hours? While he is already logging in through a different number? ↓

    1. Yana 09.24.2017 at 16:15

      Not if you deleted the program. ↓

  72. Al 09.10.2017 at 13:45

    Hello! By mistake I sent a photo with a caption to the general group I am a member of. The content is completely personal... How can I remove this information from the group? Will deleting your account save the day? ↓

  • Polina 04/28/2017 at 11:15

    Chat saved. The contact had no status when it was online, although it was always displayed. There is a photograph. When I click on the photo it opens and at the bottom there is an entry “Invite” what this could mean. The contact deleted WhatsApp or maybe changed his phone or number? ↓

    1. Lena 04/30/2017 at 16:27

      yes, either changed the number or deleted it ↓

  • Lena 04/26/2017 at 18:29

    Good afternoon Please tell me, I have a person in my contacts on my phone, but if I want to find and write to him in What's up, I can't find him, even his contact is not displayed. What could this mean? ↓

  • Anastasia 04/05/2017 at 10:47

    please tell me, I can’t see my contact’s profile photo, the visit status and messages don’t reach him, but if I look at his profile through other people, I can see what this could mean? , blocking me or it could also be deleted from whatsapp, does the profile remain visible to others after deletion? ↓

    1. Egor_L 04/08/2017 at 12:01

      Most likely you have been blocked. That's why you don't see his profile and updates related to him. After deleting your account, you remain in your contact list, but you cannot write a message. ↓

  • Elena 03/17/2017 at 03:18

    Tell me, please, if a person does not have WhatsApp installed, but calls go through, what does this mean? ↓

  • Anastasia 03/08/2017 at 15:54

    Tell me, they send me messages via WhatsApp, but they don’t come to me at all. What’s the problem ↓

    1. Tom_Ti 03/08/2017 at 18:03

      Read the article http://site/ne-prixodyat-soobshheniya-whatsapp.html, several reasons are described there and advice is given. ↓

      1. Maria 08/04/2017 at 18:58

        Please explain. If there is a delivery mark for the message, but the recipient claims that he did not receive it. And so several messages, then let’s say the third message was received and read, that is, blue checkmarks appeared, but the first few remained gray. Is this possible? Moreover, this will only happen to one user. I want to say right away that I see him appearing on WhatsApp ↓

  • Anya 02/28/2017 at 08:37

    Hello. Is this possible or what does this mean: if there is a delivery message (2 checkboxes) and there is a photo in the profile, the last post is not visible because this information is hidden. But the problem is that I can’t “catch” this contact in the “online” status. Could this be just because my contact and I are online at different times, or am I still deleted or blocked? Thank you) ↓

    1. Dmitry 03/01/2017 at 12:34

      your description suggests that he may have deleted the application ↓

  • Oksana 02/20/2017 at 22:54

    I deleted a person from WhatsApp and my address book... can he write to me or do I need to block him for this? ↓

    1. Varya 02.22.2017 at 15:32

      Can write, needs to be blocked ↓

  • Alya 02.20.2017 at 19:19

    Good evening. How can I find out if a person has blocked me or deleted me from WhatsApp? My friend said that she deleted WhatsApp, but then why did she remain in my WhatsApp contacts? (that is, I see her in contacts, although the number is the day she deleted it and the messages are marked with one tick.) Doesn’t this mean that she just blocked me and didn’t delete WhatsApp? ↓

  • balapan 11/23/2016 at 11:29

    I deleted WhatsApp, but why is my status still there? I asked my friend to send the screenshot. I deleted WhatsApp, then why did the status remain? Everyone thinks that I blocked them ↓

    1. Zhorikov 11/25/2016 at 12:44 pm

      Status that you are online? ↓

  • Tanya 10/08/2016 at 18:19

    Good afternoon. How can I find out if I am in a person’s WhatsApp contacts? provided that I have him in my contacts. ↓

    1. Airship 10/09/2016 at 14:41

      no way. You don't know who has your phone number. Anyone can have it. It's the same here. ↓

      1. Dmitry 09/16/2017 at 18:58

        I communicated with a girl in DM, then blocked her and deleted my account, will she be able to somehow write to my friends or will she be unable to do anything? ↓

        1. Alla 09.17.2017 at 16:11

          She can't do anything anymore - she's blocked. ↓

  • WhatsApp is a super convenient assistant for virtual correspondence on your phone. And most importantly, very economical. Either for every SMS mobile operator Should I spend money only on Internet traffic (take, for example, some unlimited package)? Agree, there is still a difference, and what a difference!

    However, since you are reading this article: “a” - the benefits of such communication no longer appeal to you; “b” - you decided to create another account; “s” - we decided to use another messenger. In general, one of these situations prompted you to delete WhatsApp from your phone.

    Well, the decision has been made. Read the instructions for your device and proceed.

    iOS devices (iPad, iPhone)

    Account

    1. On the home screen of your device, tap the application icon.

    2. Open the “Settings” section.

    3. Select “Account” from the list.

    4. Run the “Delete my...” command to remove yourself from the messenger system.

    5. Select your country from the list, dial the phone number (from your iPhone to which the account is registered).

    6. Click “Delete My Account” again.

    Application

    1. Hold your finger on the WhatsApp shortcut until all the icons begin to shake.

    2. Click the “cross” that appears in the shortcut field.

    3. Confirm deletion.

    Android OS devices

    Account

    1. Tap “three dots” in the WhatsApp panel.

    2. Open the “Settings” section.

    3. Go to the “Account” subsection.

    4. To completely remove the profile, touch the “Delete...” command with your finger.

    5. Set your country code, type your mobile number.

    6. Click "Delete Account".

    7. Indicate the reason why you are leaving your account (for example, “I am changing my device”).

    8. Click “Delete...” again

    Knowing how to remove WhatsApp from your phone, you can get rid of this application once and for all.

    However, before starting the procedure, it should be borne in mind that it is irreversible and will lead to:

    • All groups in the messenger will be automatically deleted.
    • The history of correspondence with other users will be lost.
    • Information about payments in the application will be erased.
    • The user will be excluded from the contact lists of their acquaintances.

    Erase an application

    If this procedure is still necessary, you will have to perform it yourself. The program support service will not help in this case. Before you remove WhatsApp from your computer or other device, you should decide on the type operating system, since for each of them the algorithm of actions will be different.

    Case 1: Android

    Case 2: iOS

    1. On Apple devices, first go to the main menu through the Home button.
    2. The next step is to search for the icon WhatsApp.
    3. Next, you need to touch the application icon and hold it for a few seconds.
    4. A cross will appear in the upper left part of the screen, which you need to click to remove the utility.

    Case 3: PC

    If you were using the web version of WhatsApp, you will simply need to exit it. You can do this directly in your web browser.

    After deleting the program, you will not be able to restore your account. The system does not store information about former users in its database. Therefore, if the questionnaire and application contain valuable information, then you should wait to remove the program.

    All information stored on WhatsApp disappears forever. In this regard, sometimes it is enough to simply log out of your account and not use the utility for a while. If you wish, you can install the messenger on your gadget again. However, the registration procedure will have to be done in a new way.
