How To Delete Duolingo Account Easily [Step-By-Step] - DoNotPay

How to Delete Your Duolingo Account the Easy Way

Duolingo is a language-learning app that allows you to learn a new language while you are on the go. Currently, Duolingo allows its 500 million users to learn up to 40 different languages. Most courses are free, but the platform does offer some premium features for a fee.

While this app is educational and fun, many people end up losing interest in Duolingo over time. If you have a Duolingo account but are no longer using it, it may be in your best interest to delete your old account. Here is a look at how DoNotPay can help you delete your Duolingo account quickly and easily.

How to Delete Your Duolingo Account on Your Own

Recently, Duolingo created a data portal called the Duolingo Drive-Thru. If you want to change any of your account details, you do so from the Drive-Thru.

To delete your account on your own, you will need to:

1. Open the Duolingo app or go to the Duolingo website on your computer
2. Sign in to your account
3. Go to the Duolingo Drive-Thru
4. Scroll down to the very bottom of the page
5. Click on the large, red button at the bottom of the page that says, "Erase Personal Data”
6. Wait for an email that confirms you want to delete your account
7. Click on the confirmation link that was sent on the email

Make sure to keep the confirmation email for at least seven days. In the first seven days following your account being deleted, you will be able to change your mind and reactivate your account.

The only way to reactivate your account is to click on the additional link that is provided in the confirmation email. If you wait longer than 7 days, you will no longer be able to reactivate your account.

Important Information for Duolingo Plus Members

If you are a Duolingo Plus member, deleting your account will not stop your monthly membership charges. If you signed up to become a Plus member through the mobile app, you will need to go directly to the Google Play Store or the Apple App/iTunes Store to cancel your premium subscription. Additionally, you can cancel your Plus subscription by signing into your Duolingo account on your computer.

No matter how you choose to cancel your Duolingo Plus subscription, just make sure that you do cancel it before you delete your account. Otherwise, you may still be responsible for additional charges.

What Can Go Wrong When You Delete Your Duolingo Account Yourself

One of the main mistakes that people make when they go to delete their account is that they will accidentally deactivate their account, instead of deleting it. While these two things may seem very similar, deleting your account is not the same as deactivating it.

When you deactivate your account, you are essentially pausing your account for an undefined amount of time. While your account is deactivated, your username and other personal information will be reserved to ensure that no one else can use it. At any time, you can reactivate your account, and pick right up where you left off.

When you delete your account, you are completely removing all of your data and personal information from Duolingo's system.
