If you’ve decided to stop using Momentum, you can permanently delete your account and all associated data. This removes your personal information, preferences, and saved content from our servers.
Because this action is permanent, it’s worth taking a moment to understand what happens and review a few alternatives before you proceed.
Why you might delete your account
You may choose to delete your account if you:
- No longer use Momentum
- Want to start fresh with a new account
- Prefer to have all your data fully removed
Before deleting, make sure you’ve saved anything you’d like to keep. Once your account is deleted, it can’t be undone.
What happens when you delete your account
When you delete your Momentum account:
- Your personal data is scheduled for permanent removal within 30 days
- Tasks, Links, Daily Goals, preferences, and settings are deleted
- Any active Momentum Plus subscription is automatically canceled
- You lose access to your account immediately
- Synced data across devices is removed
⚠️ Important: Account deletion is permanent. Your data, preferences, and history cannot be recovered.
Before you delete
You may want to consider these options first:
-
Take a break instead
You can stop using Momentum without deleting your account. Your data will stay saved if you decide to return later. -
Save important information
If you want to keep Tasks, Links, or notes, export or copy them before deleting. -
