Happn is a location-based dating mobile app that prompts users to like/dislike other users. In this article, we’ll show you how to delete a Happn account in your mobile app. Just so you’re aware, deleting the Happn app will not delete your account, so delete that first in the “App Settings” menu before you remove the app from you phone if you don’t want to keep your profile active.

Things You Should Know

  • You can delete your Happn account via the settings in the app.
  • You also have the option to pause your account to temporarily hide it from others. If you pause your account, you can reactivate it later.
  • Deleting the Happn app on your phone won't delete your account. You'll need to delete your account first.
