How to remove
Delete your Sarahah account
from Windows

I am one of those millions of people who gave Sarahah app a try. However, I did not find it as interesting and entertaining as others. Besides, the latest news about stealing users’ information shocked me. I am not sure I want to be the part of this network. Could you tell me how to delete Sarahah account?

Sarahah is a popular yet controversial app that was launched in Saudi Arabia in November 2016. After translating its name from the Arabian language, the app should be linked to “honesty” or “openness.” Originally, the application was created to allow coworkers to exchange opinions and encourage each other. However, teenagers took advantage of this tool and have started using it for their own good.

Currently, the program has over 18 million iOS and Android users. The popularity of this platform lies in its anonymous messaging feature that allows telling things to people you know without revealing your identity.[ref en-1]

However, the app is criticized for its negativity and cyberbullying. Therefore, parents are warned that the app might have a negative impact on the mental health of their kids. Thus, it’s one of the reasons why users leave this platform and are aiming to delete the Sarahah account completely.

At the end of August 2017, researchers discovered that app collected users' contact information[ref en-2], including phone numbers and emails. What is worse, it was stored in the company’s servers without the user’s permission. Nevertheless, the company claimed that it was a “technical issue” and they deleted collected data; not everyone was pleased with this situation.

However, if you enjoy using Sarahah, you can only uninstall the app from your smartphone. Any privacy-related issues have been reported on the web version of the program. Therefore, you can continue sending and receiving anonymous messages about your strengths and weaknesses.
