How to Deactivate or Delete Your Quora Account
Despite its many advantages, Quora is not for everyone. If you’ve tested out the site and decided you no longer want an account, you may be wanting to deactivate or delete your account.
Fortunately, doing so is straightforward and quick.
Deactivating vs. Deleting Your Quora Account
Note that there is a difference between deactivating and deleting your account before taking any of the measures indicated in this section.
Your account will be permanently and immediately erased upon termination. You can always reactivate your deactivated account by logging back into Quora. However, you do not need to renew your Quora account in order to browse material, as you may read Quora answers without logging in.
If you no longer intend to use the platform, you should cancel your Quora account unless you are certain that you will never use it again. You will no longer get emails, nor will other users be able to communicate with you, but you will always have the option to reactivate your account if you change your mind.

- On the side menu, click Privacy.
- On the Privacy settings menu, scroll down until you see two options: Deactivate Account and Delete Account.
- Click the desired action (Deactivate or Delete), then enter your password and click Done.
You should now have deactivated or permanently deleted your account.
Deactivating or Permanently Deleting Your Quora Account on Mobile
The processes for deactivating or permanently canceling your Quora account on the mobile app are similar to those on a computer, but the navigation is slightly different.
- Open the Quora app.

With these actions, your Quora account should be suspended or permanently removed.
