How to delete your Grillbook account and data
In the app — the fastest way
- Open Grillbook and go to the Profile tab.
- Tap the gear in the top right corner to open Settings.
- Tap Delete Account.
- Confirm: Delete.
You need an internet connection. If you're offline, the app will tell you the account wasn't deleted and won't erase anything.
Without the app
If the app is no longer on your phone, email support@grillbook.app with the subject "Delete account".
- Write from the email address linked to your account.
- If you signed in with Apple and hid your email (
…@privaterelay.appleid.com), write from any address and include your username from the profile (@…). We will send a message to the hidden address, and Apple will forward it to you. Reply to it to confirm the account is yours.
We will delete your account within 15 business days and let you know when it's done.
What gets deleted
Immediately and permanently, from the server and from the phone:
- your name, username, email and Apple or Google account ID;
- your profile photo;
- your cooking profile: what you cook on, tools, servings, favorite doneness, what you don't eat;
- saved recipes;
- cooks — ongoing and finished;
- all sign-ins on all phones.
We also revoke Sign in with Apple — Grillbook will disappear from the "Sign in with Apple" list in iPhone Settings.
A deleted account can't be restored. If you sign in again, a new empty account is created.
What remains
- Server technical logs (IP address, request time and path) — up to 90 days, then deleted automatically.
- Your Apple or Google account. We don't touch it — only your Grillbook account is deleted.
- Data on other phones where you haven't opened the app since the deletion. It's erased when the app starts there. Or just delete the app.
Sign out or delete?
Sign Out (Profile → Settings → Sign Out) erases data only from this phone. Your account and everything on the server stay and come back when you sign in again.
Delete Account erases everything, everywhere, for good.
Disconnect Grillbook from Apple or Google
You can do this without deleting your account — then you won't be able to sign in that way:
- Apple: iPhone Settings → your name → Sign-In & Security → Sign in with Apple → Grillbook → Stop Using Sign in with Apple.
- Google: https://myaccount.google.com/connections → Grillbook → Delete all connections.
This doesn't delete your data in Grillbook — to do that, delete your account.
