If you’ve had enough of Nextdoor, the local social network neighborhood app that has a heavy focus on localized gossip, rumors, busybodies, nosy parkers, nonsense, and endless emails, you may be interested in deleting your Nextdoor account, or at least deactivating your Nextdoor account.
Either method will disable your account, and also offers an alternative method of stopping the endless Nextdoor emails if the unsubscribing from seven hundred trillion toggles was not effective or too cumbersome to you.
How to Deactivate Your Nextdoor Account
If you simply wish to deactivate your Nextdoor account (and stop getting their constant emails) you can do the following:
- Open the Nextdoor app
- Tap on your profile in the corner
- Tap on “Settings”
- Tap on “Account”
- Scroll down and tap on “Deactivate your account”
- Choose a reason to deactivate your account
You’ll get an email confirmation informing you your account is deactivated.
How to Delete Your Nextdoor Account
Much like it’s incredibly difficult to unsubscribe from Nextdoor emails and getting Nextdoor to stop emailing you, it’s also annoyingly challenging to delete a Nextdoor account.
Rather than being able to delete Nextdoor accounts from the Nextdoor app, you have to actually send a delete request to them directly through their website using this form to request an account deletion.
