Account Deletion

Apple App Store guideline 5.1.1 requires that any app supporting account creation must also provide a way for users to delete their account. The Account Deletion widget adds a native button that initiates a confirmation dialog and permanently removes the user’s account from your WordPress site when confirmed.

Place this widget on your account or settings page — typically /my-account/ — so reviewers can locate it during the App Store submission process. Without a discoverable account deletion path, your app will be rejected at review.

You can add this feature to your app using one of the following methods:

  • Use the [appress_account_deletion] shortcode
  • Use the Account Deletion widget in Elementor
  • Use the Account Deletion element in Bricks Builder
