Delete Your Account and Data
Last updated: 18 September 2026
This page explains how to delete your DoomBlock account and the data linked to it. It applies to the DoomBlock app published by Bros Dolz LLC for Android.
First: which kind of account do you have?
Signing in to DoomBlock is optional, and which route below applies to you depends on whether you did. Open DoomBlock, go to Settings, and look under Account:
- A row showing your email address (or "Signed in with Google") — you have an account you signed into. Use Delete from inside the app.
- "No account attached" — you have an account with no email address and no password on it, and it holds a cloud backup of your setup even though you never gave us an email. Redeeming an unlock code while signed out is the only thing that creates one of these, and nothing else creates one — not choosing Continue without an account during setup, not subscribing, not using the app. A code has to be granted to some account, so the app makes you one on the spot rather than sending you off to build one first. Use If you are using DoomBlock without an account.
- "Sign in" — you have no account, and there is nothing here for you to do. Choosing Continue without an account during setup creates nothing on our side, and neither does ordinary use of the app: your blocks, statistics and settings are on your phone and have never been uploaded. Uninstalling DoomBlock, or clearing its data in Android's settings, is all it takes to remove them.
The first two both have a cloud copy of your setup, so both are worth deleting if that is what you want, and both can be deleted from inside the app. The difference is only in how you prove the account is yours: one asks for the email address on it, and the other cannot, because there is none.
Delete from inside the app (fastest)
- Open DoomBlock and go to Settings.
- Tap your account (the row showing your email address).
- Choose Delete account.
- Confirm it. If you have set a PIN you will be asked for it first, then to type your email address and the word goodbye — deliberate friction, because the deletion cannot be undone.
What gets deleted — and this is the same for Delete account and for Clear data, which destroy exactly as much as each other: your account and your cloud backup — your email or login if you had one and the ID behind it, your block groups (the apps, websites, keywords and short-form content you chose), schedules, session limits, cooldown configuration, app preferences, your statistics counters, your override history with its timestamps, how you labelled apps as productive or distracting, your subscription record, any beta code you redeemed, and the stored hash of your PIN. The app on your device is also reset to a fresh install. This happens right away and cannot be undone.
Your subscription is separate. Deleting your account does not cancel a Google Play subscription and does not refund it. Cancel it yourself in the Play Store, under Payments & subscriptions. Refunds are handled by Google Play under its own policy.
If you are using DoomBlock without an account
You are here because you redeemed an unlock code without being signed in, which is the only thing that creates an account of this kind. The code had to be granted to some account, so the app made you one, and it has no email address and no password on it — meaning there is no address for us to match a request against. There are three ways to get the data deleted, and one thing to avoid.
1. Clear data, in the app (fastest, and deletes everything)
Go to Settings → Account — the row that says “No account attached” — and choose Clear data. It deletes the account and its cloud backup outright, and resets the app on this device to a fresh install. If you have set a PIN you will be asked for it first, then to type the word goodbye.
This does exactly what Delete account does for an account with an email address, and it is just as permanent. It asks for no email address because there is none to verify: the app is already inside your account, which is the proof.
Added in DoomBlock 1.4.9. On an older version, update the app or use route 2 or 3 below.
2. Add an email address, then delete
Go to Settings → Account → Add an account and add an email address or your Google account. This attaches to the account you already have rather than creating a new one — the same ID, the same backup, the same subscription — so nothing is duplicated and nothing is lost. Your address then shows on the account row, and the steps above delete everything, immediately.
Worth it only if you want the account to survive somewhere else first, or want the deletion tied to an address you can be contacted at. If you simply want the data gone, route 1 does that without asking you for an email address at all.
3. Ask us to delete it
Email support@brosdolz.com with the subject "Delete my account" and tell us you were using DoomBlock without an account. So that we delete the right record and not someone else's, include whichever of these applies:
- Your account ID. Open Settings → Account and tap Account ID to copy it, then paste it into the email. It is the random identifier the account is named by, it is shown in full for exactly this purpose, and it identifies your record on its own — whether or not you ever paid us anything.
- If you subscribed: your Google Play order number (Play Store → Payments & subscriptions → Budget & history, or the receipt Google emailed you). Your purchase is stored against the account, so the order number is enough for us to find it.
- If you redeemed a beta or comp code: the code and roughly when you redeemed it. If that code was issued to you alone, it identifies your record.
We will confirm what we found before deleting anything, and complete the deletion within 30 days of agreeing that the record is yours.
Being straight with you about the limit. All three of the things above are reachable only from the app on your phone. While you still have it installed there is always a route — route 1 does the whole thing yourself, and the account ID lets us find your record even if you never paid us anything. Once the app is gone, so is the ID, and an account with no email contains nothing else that identifies you: no email, no name, no phone number, no device identifier. At that point we genuinely cannot tell which record is yours, and we will not delete a stranger's data on a guess.
Do this before you uninstall
That is why the order matters. Uninstalling DoomBlock, or clearing its data from Android's own app settings, removes everything held on the device — but it also throws away the only key to that account, and the cloud backup then stays in our database out of reach of both of us (unless there is a purchase to trace it by, as above).
So use Clear data inside DoomBlock rather than uninstalling it, because that deletes the cloud copy first and then resets the device. If you would rather keep the account, add an email address to it before the app goes. Either way, do it before you uninstall — and if you only want a copy of the ID for later, copy it now.
Request deletion without the app (accounts with an email)
If you cannot use the app, email support@brosdolz.com from the address linked to your account, with the subject "Delete my account". We will check that the request belongs to you and delete your account and cloud backup within 30 days.
Data retention
Once deleted, your account data is not kept. Anonymous grouped data that cannot identify you may still remain outside your account. An account with no email address that we cannot connect to a person is kept until it is deleted through one of the three routes above — which is why the first of them is worth using while the app is still installed. Records that Google Play holds about your purchase are kept by Google under its own policy and are not ours to delete.
