Deleting your account

If you've decided to stop using Momentum, you can permanently delete your account and its associated data. This removes your personal information, preferences, and saved content from Momentum.

Account deletion is permanent, so make sure you've saved anything you want to keep before continuing. Once your account is deleted, it can't be recovered.

⚠️ Important: Deleting your account permanently removes your Momentum data, preferences, and history. This action can't be undone.

Before you delete your account

Before deleting your account, take a moment to save anything you may want later and consider whether deleting the entire account is necessary.

Save anything you want to keep

If you want to keep information from Tasks :momentum-tasks:, Links :momentum-links:, Notes :momentum-notes:, or other Momentum features, copy or export it before deleting your account.

Once your account is deleted, you won't be able to recover this information.
