After a pretty awesome honeymoon period where Houseparty saw its downloads skyrocket, it seems that everything is crashing back to the ground. Users claim their accounts were compromised to the point that other apps were affected, and Houseparty responded with a bounty to find who's responsible for a smear campaign. If you don't want the headache of being stuck in the middle, here's how you can delete your Houseparty completely and wash your hands of the situation.

Despite Houseparty reassuring users that their accounts are safe, some users are still opting to delete their accounts.If you want to delete yours, here’s how to do it:
- Enter the app and click on the smiley face symbol in the top left corner of the screen
- This will take you to your friends list - from here, click the red gear/settings button in the top left corner
- Select ‘Privacy’
- Click ‘Delete account’
- Select ‘Yes’ and then enter your password
Some Twitter users have encountered issues when entering their passwords for the final step, saying that they’ve been told their password is wrong when they know it’s correct.
One user tweeted: “If you put your password in 3 times (even though it says “incorrect password”) it’ll say “you’re breaking our hearts” and you can then click “delete” and your account will be deactivated x”.
I can't delete my account on Android?
At the moment, Android users cannot delete their accounts following the previously outlined instructions.
Instead, Android users will need to email a request to the support team to delete an account.
If you’re using an Android phone and want to delete the Houseparty app, you should email support@houseparty.com and ask for your account to be deleted.
