Deleting your Backstory data
Last updated 23 July 2026.
Delete data inside the app
Delete individual memories with a two-tap delete on the memory itself. To remove everything from your device, delete the app — this permanently erases the on-device database.
Delete your account
If you created an account for family sharing, open Settings → Family sharing → Delete account. This permanently deletes your account, your shared memories and anything linked to them from our server. It cannot be undone.
Or ask us to do it
Email [email protected] from the address on your account and we will erase everything linked to you. We confirm once it is done, and we act within 30 days.
Deletion is permanent. We do not keep a shadow copy, and we cannot restore an account once it is gone.
