How do I delete my tell Ly account?

If you have a Musical.ly account that you no longer want, you might have realized already that it seems absolutely impossible to delete it – and there’s a reason for that. Musical.ly has intentionally not built a feature into their app that allows users to delete their accounts. This means that for now, until they address this, you will not be able to delete a Musical.ly account, so you’re stuck with the one you have for now.

But don’t worry – there is still something you can do. We have two methods you can take advantage of to permanently delete your Musical.ly account, or make it completely invisible to other users.

Method 1: Ask Musical.ly to permanently delete your account through their help desk

This method has worked for some, and received a poor response from Musical.ly for others. Because Musical.ly doesn’t allow you to delete your account within the app, you can contact their help team and ask them to delete your account and all your information. They have the ability to do this, though whether they will or not is questionable. To get it done, here’s what you need to do:

1. Visit the Musical.ly Help Center.

1. Click Submit a Ticket in the top-right corner.

1. Click Report a Problem.

1. Select “Android” or “iOS” depending on which device you use for Musical.ly.

1. Select Profile.

1. In the field marked “Username” enter your username. In the field marked “Contact email address’ enter the email address you wish to use to interact with Musical.ly customer service. In the field marked “What information should we know?” ask to have your account deleted.

1. Click the blue Submit button – which will only appear once you have filled in each required field.

Note that many people who have tried this procedure receive the following response from Musical.ly:

“We are in the process of adding a feature that allows users to delete their accounts. Please stay tuned and continue to check upcoming versions of the app for this feature.”

Though this is your only way of getting your account permanently deleted, it may not work if Musical.ly isn’t willing to delete your account. If that’s the case, you can still hide your information from other users, effectively making your profile invisible.

Method 2: Make your profile private and hide it from other users

1. Open the Musical.ly app.

1. From any screen, tap the profile icon from the bottom menu.

1. Tap the settings (gear) icon in the top-right corner.

1. Tap Settings in the pop-up menu.

Tap Privacy Settings.

1. Tap the toggles for both options: Allow Contacts to Find Me and Private Account.

Allow Contacts to Find Me should be set to off (grey) now, and Private Account should be set to on (yellow). This means that only people listed in your friends list can interact with you in the app.

If you want to go the extra mile, change your Musical.ly username as well to something random or generic, like “User1234.” Note, however, that Musical.ly claims they will offer account deletion in the future. If they do, you will need to remember your username and password in order to delete your account. So if you change it, take note of your new username.

And that’s how you can permanently delete or hide your Musical.ly account. Remember that if you simply delete the app on your Android or iOS device, it will not erase your profile or any of your information from Musical.ly.
