Guide to resets and unbans on Dating apps

Step 1: Delete Your Existing Account

First, you need to properly remove your old profile:

• Open your dating app and tap your profile picture in the top left
• Access the settings menu (usually a gear icon)
• Scroll down to find "Delete Account" option
• Confirm the deletion
• Uninstall the app from your phone

Note: Sometimes you might not be able to delete your account normally. In this case, proceed to the next step.

Step 2: Request Complete Data Deletion

Simply deactivating your account doesn't actually remove your data from the company's servers.

• Send an official data deletion request to the app's privacy email (e.g., [email protected])
• Use this template:

• Wait for confirmation (can take up to a month)

Step 3: Clear All App Data

This step helps remove local traces of the app:

• Android users: Go to Settings > Apps > [Dating App] > Storage > Clear data and cache
• iPhone users: Unfortunately, Apple doesn't offer deep cleaning options. Uninstalling is your only option.

Step 4: Using a New Phone

Dating apps are increasingly sophisticated at tracking users across re installs:

• If possible, use a different phone for your new account
• Find that old iPhone that you don't use anymore
• Consider an inexpensive second-hand phone ($30-40 on marketplaces)
• If buying a new iPhone, create a new Apple ID too
• You can use the phone on hotspot/WiFi without a SIM card if necessary

Too hard? You can make a new account in the browser but this increases your risk score and will result in you getting banned easier.

Step 5: Get a New Phone Number & Email

This is perhaps the most crucial step of the reset process:

New Phone Number Options:

• Purchase a prepaid SIM card
• Try number apps verification apps like TextNow, smspool or Burner
• Use a verification service (usually under $5)

New Email:

• Create a fresh Gmail account from your new device
• Don't import contacts or connect to your other accounts
• Use this email exclusively for dating apps

For extra security, use your new phone number for initial verification, then switch to email verification for future logins.

Step 6: Your Photos

Dating apps use image recognition to detect reused photos:

• Use completely different photos than your previous account
• Or modify your old photos using the image editing tool above to change their digital signature

Step 7: Use a Different Network

Your IP address can be used to track you:

• Use mobile data instead of your home WiFi that you used on your previous account.
• Try a public WiFi hotspot or a friend's network
• Avoid VPNs as they can trigger suspicion flags
• You can likely return to your regular network once the account is established

Step 8: Create Your New Account

Now you're ready to start fresh:

• Use your new phone number and email
• Avoid social logins (Facebook, etc.)
• Wait at least 3 days after sending deletion requests
• Don't link old Instagram/Spotify accounts
• Use a different payment method for premium services
• Avoid face verification if possible
• Use the new modified pictures.

Step 9: Use Your New Account Wisely

To avoid future profile issues:

• They are more likely to ban low "elo" profiles. Get afacial analysis and find out how to become more attractive and what your best images are.
• Be selective with your first 20 swipes to establish your "standards"
• Don't purchase long-term subscriptions – stick to monthly plans
• Avoid swiping right on everyone – the algorithm penalizes this behavior.
