Delete WeChat Account

WeChat is a widely used messaging app that serves various purposes like social media and mobile payment and has over a billion active monthly users, mostly from China. It’s also known as the “App for everything” in China. However, if you live in other countries besides China, you may have noticed that WeChat is not as popular as other messaging apps, meaning fewer users and friends on WeChat. 

If you are one of those few WeChat users in your country and want to delete your WeChat account, we’ve got your back. In the past, it was a hassle to delete your WeChat account, but Wechat has made it easier and quicker. Here’s how to do it. 

Note: Deleting your WeChat account is permanent and cannot be recovered.

  1. Open WeChat on your phone.
