How Account Deletion Works on Each Platform

Apple: Guideline 5.1.1(v)

Since June 30, 2022, any app that supports account creation must also let users start account deletion from inside the app — not just deactivate or “contact support.” The path has to remove the account and its personal data, and you may point users to a hosted web page (like the one this tool generates) to complete or confirm the request. Apps that only hide the account, or that make users email you, are commonly rejected under 5.1.1(v).

Google Play: the Delete Account URL

Google Play requires two things for apps with accounts: an in-app deletion path, and a public web URL where a user can request deletion without downloading the app again. That URL is entered in the Data Safety form, under the “Data deletion” section, and it shows up on your store listing. The initial deadline was December 7, 2023; enforcement (including possible removal) began May 31, 2024. If the Data Safety answers don’t match your actual practice, that is itself a policy violation.

Deactivation is not deletion

Both platforms treat “deactivate,” “pause,” or “disable” as separate from deletion. If you offer those, you still need a clearly labelled delete option that erases the account. A deletion flow that silently just deactivates is a frequent rejection reason.

What you delete vs. what you may keep

You do not have to delete data you are legally required to retain — tax and transaction records, fraud-prevention logs, or data needed to resolve an active dispute. But Google Play requires you to disclose what is kept and why, and for how long. The generated page includes a “what we delete / what we retain” section so your hosted URL and your Data Safety answers say the same thing. Anonymized or aggregated data that can no longer be linked to the user can usually be kept without disclosure.

Sign in with Apple: revoke the tokens

If your app offers Sign in with Apple, deleting the account is not enough — Apple’s review guidance (TN3194) expects you to call the token-revocation REST endpoint so Apple also drops the app from the user’s Apple ID:

  • Generate a client secret (a signed JWT) using your Sign in with Apple key, then POST https://appleid.apple.com/auth/revoke with the user’s refresh or access token and token_type_hint.
  • Do this before you erase the stored Apple token, or you lose the ability to revoke it.
  • The Firebase Auth iOS SDK wraps this in a revokeToken(withAuthorizationCode:)call; on other stacks you call the /auth/revoke REST endpoint directly.

Grace periods

A grace period (commonly up to 30 days) where the user can cancel the request is allowed by both platforms, but it must be disclosed on the deletion page. During the grace period the account should be inaccessible, and after it the deletion must actually complete without further action from the user. You can set the grace-period text when you generate the page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this really free?

Yes, 100% free. No credit card required. Create unlimited account deletion pages at no cost.

Does a hosted web page satisfy both Apple and Google Play?

For Google Play, the hosted page IS the required 'Delete Account URL' you enter in the Data Safety form — plus you need an in-app path. For Apple, deletion must be startable inside the app, but linking from there to a hosted page to complete the request is fine.

Where do I put the Delete Account URL for Google Play?

In Play Console, open the Data Safety form and go to the 'Data deletion' section. Paste the hosted page URL where it asks for the web link to request account deletion. It then appears on your store listing.

When did account deletion become required?

Apple has enforced Guideline 5.1.1(v) since June 30, 2022. Google Play's deadline was December 7, 2023, with enforcement (including possible removal) starting May 31, 2024.

My app uses Sign in with Apple. Is deleting the account enough?

No. Apple expects you to also call the token revocation endpoint (POST https://appleid.apple.com/auth/revoke) so Apple removes the app from the user's Apple ID. Do this before you erase the stored Apple token. The generated page explains the flow for Node, Swift and Firebase.

Do I have to delete absolutely everything?

No. You can retain data you are legally required to keep (tax records, fraud logs, active-dispute data) or fully anonymized data. Google Play requires you to disclose what is retained and why — the generated page includes a 'what we delete vs. retain' section for that.

Is it GDPR compliant?

Yes. The account deletion page meets GDPR Article 17 (right to be forgotten) and CCPA requirements. Users can submit a request and you handle the actual deletion in your system.

Where does the deletion request go?

All requests are sent to the email address you provide. You handle the actual account deletion through your own systems.

Can I customize the form?

Yes. You can set your app name, contact email, verification methods, grace period, and data deletion scope. Everything is free — no premium plan required.

Do you store deletion request data?

No. Deletion requests are forwarded to your email and not stored on our servers.
