Delete your account

We’re sorry to see you go. Verify it’s really you with a one-time code sent to your email or phone, and your ScholarFeed+ account and data are deleted immediately — no waiting period, and it can’t be undone.

Signed in with Apple? Delete your account from the app instead, under Settings → Delete Account. Apple’s private email addresses can’t always receive our verification code.

What gets deleted

  • Your profile, including email, display name, and photo
  • Followed researchers, topics, and saved articles
  • Playlists you created, whether public or private
  • Search history, comments, likes, and other in-app activity
  • Push notification tokens and device data

What we may retain

  • Records we're legally required to keep (e.g., for fraud prevention or tax purposes)
  • Content already shared publicly by other users that references your activity (e.g., a reply on a public playlist)

See our Privacy Policy for full details on data retention.

Request deletion

Enter the email or phone number tied to your account and verify it’s you. Deletion happens immediately — this can’t be undone.

Help us improve (optional): why are you leaving?

We’ll text or email you a 6-digit code to confirm it’s really you.
