Delete your account

You can delete your lunarlog account yourself, from inside the app, and it happens immediately — this is not a request we review later. This page explains how, and exactly what is and isn't deleted.

Delete from inside the app

The steps are the same on iPhone and Android. The browser version has its own, a little shorter.

One exception: an account that has Sign in with Apple linked cannot finish deleting on Android, because Android has no Sign in with Apple step for it to confirm with. The app says so and deletes nothing. Delete that account from an iPhone or iPad, from the browser version, or by email.

  1. Open lunarlog and sign in to the account you want to delete.
  2. Open More in the bottom bar to reach Settings.
  3. Scroll to the Account section and tap Delete account.
  4. The confirmation dialog tells you exactly what will be deleted and names the profiles it will take with it. Before confirming you can also:
    • choose Export first to save a JSON copy of your data, or export any time earlier from Settings → Your data; and
    • choose Transfer ownership first if you own a profile that other people still use — see a minor's profile below.
  5. If your account owns profiles shared with other guardians, tick the acknowledgement — it confirms you understand those guardians lose access.
  6. Tap Delete account to finish. Your server data and your account are normally gone by the time the confirmation completes, and the copy on this device is wiped with them.

Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. If you think you may want your history later, export first.

One safety detail: if something fails part way — an Apple confirmation that doesn't land, a file that can't be removed — the deletion stops instead of half-completing, and you can retry it.

Delete from the browser version

The browser version at app.lunarlog.app has no More tab. Deletion is on its account page:

  1. Sign in to the account you want to delete.
  2. Open Account in the header.
  3. To keep a copy, use Export my data on that page first.
  4. Under Delete account, choose Delete account. The page says what will be deleted and asks you to confirm; choose Delete account again to finish.

If the account signs in with Apple, you are sent to Apple to confirm before anything is deleted. Deleting from the browser deletes the same account and the same data as deleting from a phone.

What is deleted

  • Every profile you own, and every entry logged on them — including entries other guardians logged on those profiles.
  • Your settings, your guardian memberships on other people's profiles, and every invitation you created.
  • Your minimum-age acknowledgement record, and the progress record for any bulk import you ran (a source label and row counts — no health content).
  • Your feedback tickets, their reply threads, and any attached screenshots.
  • Any prediction-sharing snapshot you were sharing; it is removed from the servers with the account.
  • The account itself — including, if you signed in with Apple, that app's access being revoked through Apple.
  • The copy of your data on this device. The browser version keeps no copy to begin with, so deleting your account there clears what the open tab was showing and signs it out.

What is kept

  • Profiles owned by other people survive untouched. If you were a guardian on someone else's profile, only your membership ends — their profile and its history are not affected.
  • Entries you logged on those profiles stay, with their day-to-day ownership reassigned to the profile's owner. Your name stops being shown as the person who logged them.
  • Writes already mirrored to Apple Health or Health Connect stay in your device's own health store. Deleting your lunarlog account does not reach into it.

Shared profiles

  • A profile you own that others can see: deleted completely, with its whole history. The other guardians — a partner, a co-parent, a caregiver — lose access to it. Their own accounts are not affected, but the shared profile is gone and this cannot be undone.
  • A profile shared with you that someone else owns: keeps its history. Your access ends; the entries you logged remain with the profile, re-attributed to its owner as described above.

A minor's profile

A profile a parent created for a child starts under the parent's account, and can be transferred to the child's own account when she is ready to hold it:

  • Already transferred: the profile belongs to the child's account now. Deleting the parent's account does not touch it — the profile and its whole history stay with the child.
  • Not yet transferred: the profile is deleted with the parent's account, history included. The app asks you to acknowledge this specifically before it will delete an account that owns minor profiles.

If you own a minor's profile you do not want to lose, use Transfer ownership first in the delete dialog — or transfer ownership from the profile's settings at any time before deleting.

The same rule applies to any account holder: whoever owns a profile takes it with them when they delete their account.

Deleting less than everything

You don't have to close your account to remove things:

  • Single entries or whole profiles can be deleted from inside the app at any time, without closing your account.
  • A single feedback ticket can be deleted on request (see the email path below) while keeping your account: the ticket and its reply thread are removed. One honest caveat — a screenshot attached to a ticket deleted this way currently needs your account to still exist when we process the request, so the file can be removed in the same pass. Deleting your whole account always removes tickets and screenshots itself.
  • Your data can be exported at any time from Settings → Your data — with or without an account, online or offline.

Without the app

If you no longer have access to the app or the device — or you need a deletion the in-app flow doesn't cover — you can request deletion by email instead.

  • What to include: the email address your lunarlog account uses. Please don't include health details — we don't need them, and email isn't the place for them.
  • What happens next: because this path permanently deletes an account, we take a verification step to make sure the request really is yours before acting.
