Delete your DailyFlux account
This page deletes the account you use with DailyFlux (com.dailyflux.app) — the Android app, the web app at https://app.dailyflux.io, and the desktop app all share it. You do not need the app installed, and you do not need to sign in.

What happens, and when
- IMMEDIATELY Access is revoked Every device is signed out, and every third-party application you had authorised loses its access. Your data is not touched yet.
- FOR 30 DAYS You can change your mind Sign in with your password within 30 days and choose Restore account. Signing in on its own does not cancel the deletion — you have to press Restore.
- AFTER 30 DAYS The data is erased Erasure runs on a schedule rather than at an exact minute, so it completes within a day of the deadline. After that the data cannot be recovered.
- WITHIN 14 DAYS Backups age out Database backups are kept for 14 days and then deleted, so a copy can persist in a backup for up to 14 days after erasure. Backups are only ever used to recover the whole service from a failure, never to restore one deleted account.
What is deleted
Everything below is removed from the live database when the cancellation window closes:
- Your profile: name, email address and password.
- Your preferences and settings, including timezone and reminder defaults.
- Tasks, including recurring tasks, subtasks, reminders and attachments to projects.
- Projects, sections and labels.
- Time entries and any time tracked against tasks.
- Push notification subscriptions for every device.
- Authorised third-party applications: their grants, access tokens and refresh tokens.
- Your activity log and synchronisation records.
What is kept, and why
A small amount of information outlives the account. This is the complete list:
- Backups, for up to 14 days — Database backups are taken daily and expire on a fixed schedule. Removing one account from a historical backup is not possible without destroying the backup, so deleted data ages out with it.
- Server logs, for 15 days — Operational logs needed to run and secure the service. They record request metadata, not the content of your tasks.
- Anonymised administrative records — If staff ever took a privileged action on the account — suspending it, for example — the record of that action is kept as a security measure. The account identifier is removed and the name and email address are stripped, so what remains does not identify you.
- Records we must keep by law — Where a legal obligation requires us to retain something, we keep only what that obligation requires, for only as long as it requires.
Data on your own device
DailyFlux is offline-first, so a copy of your data lives on each device. Deleting the account wipes that copy on any device you are still signed in on. On a device you are not signed in on, uninstall the app (or clear the site data in your browser) to remove it.
