Katsuyo — Delete your account
Last updated 20 August 2026
Katsuyo accounts are optional: the app works fully without one, and an account
exists only so your progress survives a lost device and follows you to another.
You can delete yours at any time, and you do not need anyone's help to do it.
Delete it from inside the app
Open Settings → Account → Delete account, then confirm
with your password. Deletion happens immediately.
If you can't reach the app
Email feedback@keshiki.app from the
address the account uses, with the subject Delete my account. Using
the account's own address is what lets us confirm the request is yours — we
cannot action a request that arrives from a different address. Requests are
handled within 30 days, and normally much sooner.
What deletion removes
- Your account and its email address
- Your synced learning history — which words and forms you have practised,
every question you got wrong, and how they were scheduled for review
- Your synced high score, games played and accuracy totals
- Your synced display name, study level and audio setting
- Any leaderboard names you had hidden
What deletion does not remove
- The progress on your device. Deleting the account does not
touch the copy stored on the phone, tablet or browser you are using — the app
keeps working, just without an account. To remove that copy too, use
Settings → Reset progress, or delete the app.
- Leaderboard scores you have already posted. Board entries
carry no account information at all, so they cannot be traced back to an
account — which also means deleting one cannot find them. To have an entry
removed, use the ⋮ report button on the entry, or
email the address above with the name and approximate date.
- A minimal deletion marker. We keep one small record — the
deleted account's internal identifier and the time it was deleted, and nothing
else. It contains no email address, no name and no progress. It exists so that
a device still holding a valid sign-in cannot recreate the account you just
deleted. This record is kept indefinitely.
