      2. Click on Delete my account.

      4. Make sure that you are logged in with the account you want to delete.

      For accounts with SSO login

      If your account uses a third-party user authentication service for SSO login, you need to open a support ticket to request the deletion of your account. You can find the procedure on the section Account deletion request via email or support request. 

      Account deletion request using PIX4Dcatch

      Important, read before requesting the account deletion: If you have an active in-app purchase (subscription) or if you have a trial license that has been requested using the in-app purchases system, you need to cancel these subscriptions. Billing for an auto-renewable subscription continues through Apple until you cancel the subscription, regardless of whether you delete your account.

      • Before you delete your account, you need to cancel your subscription using the "Settings" app on your iOS device:

      • You may need to scroll down to find the Cancel Subscription button. If there is no Cancel button or you see an expiration message in red text, the subscription has already been canceled.

      PIX4Dcatch users can start the deletion procedure using the PIX4Dcatch app following the procedure described below.

      1. Open PIX4Dcatch and go to the Account button (colored circle with the user initial at the top-right corner)
