How to delete a VK page from your phone

Unfortunately, you cannot abandon your VKontakte page from a smartphone only through the mobile application. The updated 2021 version does not have this feature.

There are no unsolvable problems - we found ways to delete an account and compiled step-by-step instructions.

It is important to understand that a page on a social network can be restored within six months after abandoning the platform. Account return occurs even when users simply open the application installed on their smartphone.

Resolving this issue is simple: just remove the program or delete the profile from the mobile device. We will consider all types.

How to delete a VK account from an Android phone

This method will help you get rid of your VK page:

Open your phone settings.
Go to the “Accounts and Synchronization” tab.
Go to the “VKontakte” subsection.
Click on the account that is no longer needed.
Tap the “More” button at the bottom of the window.
Click on "Delete Account".
Confirm your actions.

The result will be a VK profile deleted from the phone, provided that you used the official application. If necessary, you can go to the page again to restore.

Let us remind you that this opportunity is given only for 6 months, after which it will not be possible to return the old account.

There is another ingenious working method - freezing an account without the participation of the owner. To do this, just constantly break the community rules. For such violations, the VKontakte administration will independently get rid of such a bad profile.

Why you can be blocked:

distribution of 18+ content;
sending spam;
artificial increase in likes, reposts, subscribers, comments;
offensive behavior: swearing, threats, etc.;
fraud.

Restoring a VKontakte account through the administration

Deleting a VK page from an Android phone is as easy as shelling pears, but not everyone can return the old account. If the page was deleted more than six months ago, you will have to contact the technical support of the social network.

To do this, it is better to use the “Help” section - this way your desire will be seen and heard.

How to rename or link new data

Previously, it was impossible to change your personal data without administrator verification. Every change in information had to be approved. The Internet was full of advertisements that suggested changing data on the social network VK without the knowledge of the administration. It is worth saying that this is all just a scam and the user simply lost his money without receiving the expected services in return.

If you wish, you can change your real name to the same one, but only written in Latin. This can be done in the settings, in the Personal Information section. After making all changes, click on the active button Confirm changes.

But changing your name to a fake one is very difficult. The administration will definitely ask you to provide scanned documents. You can use Photoshop, sometimes it works. But you need to be prepared for the question of why you were previously on the social network under a fake name. It’s easier for girls; you can change your last name by saying that you got married.

Restoring a VKontakte account through the administration

After this, all you have to do is wait for a response from the VKontakte administration and fill out a simple form for recovery.

Moreover, if many personal photos with a clearly visible face were published on the former account, then the chances of resolving the issue will increase.

The administration will require a photograph or scanned copy of documents such as a passport, driver's license or birth certificate. The name must match the one that was specified on the old page.

How to delete VK through an Android phone - page of a deceased relative

If you need to unsubscribe from the profile of a deceased relative, then the support team also comes to the rescue. For such situations, the administration has provided a special application.

Open the form sent by email. The system will ask you to answer questions about the deceased person: whether real personal data (first and last names) is written on the page, whether this Internet client exists, whether you have him as a friend, is it possible to provide documents about his death.

You can also not get rid of the deceased’s profile, but simply limit access. Then other people will no longer be able to comment on the publication, but the media will remain accessible.

Usually the VK network operator responds within 24 hours. If necessary, the employee will ask you for additional information about the deceased person.

Preparing to delete your profile

Before getting rid of your VKontakte page from your mobile phone, take care of the fate of the comments, reposts and likes you left, which will remain after deleting your account. To do this, simply change your first and last name.

Also remember to remove images and videos from your page. If you do not plan to use the service in the future, then clear all the information as much as possible.

We recommend that you unlink your phone number and email in advance, since after you permanently get rid of your account it will be impossible to do this.

Alternative way

Now you know how to remove yourself from VKontakte . As an alternative method, instead of completely closing the page, you can delete all information on it. For example, photos, videos, audio recordings, documents, communities, friends, subscriptions and wall posts.

In addition, you can close your page from messages, wall posts, commenting on photos, and make many other settings. You can do all this in the “ Settings ” menu, then selecting “ Privacy ”. Here you need to check the boxes that are most suitable for you. This way, only you or your friends can see your personal information.
