Deleting your Telegram account is a simple procedure that should only take a short time of your time. However, this process is permanent and, as such, you must ensure that you truly want to quit the platform before proceeding.

Before you begin, have you backed up all your messages, media, and files in your Telegram account? This is an essential step considering that once you delete your account, you won't be able to retrieve any information.

To begin with, open Telegram on your device and ensure you're logged in to your Telegram account. Navigate to the options menu by tapping the three horizontal lines on the top-left corner or clicking on the three dots in the top left.

Next, scroll down to the 'Settings menu' or the Accounts and Settings tab in older versions of the app, you will see an option labeled 'Help' in older versions or 'Delete Account' in newer versions. After choosing that, select 'Delete My Account'.

Select why you'd like to leave Telegram in the given options, and then confirm that you want to delete your account from the following prompt.

After selecting 'delete' in the prompt, you may still see the Telegram icon on your device for a limited time and you will be limited in what you can do, but eventually, it will be removed.

It is crucial to note that once you delete your account, you won't be able to restore it, even with your password. So, please verify your decision before hitting the confirm button.

If you change your mind in the future, you can request that your account be reactivated within six months. After this time period, however, it will be forever erased.

Be sure to also terminate Telegram if it stays open in the background, to avoid any potential problems. This account deletion process is final, so make sure you are certain in your decision before proceeding.

Lastly, when you delete a Telegram account, your contacts won't get a notification.
