Report a Problem
Tap Report a Problem to open the report sheet. You can report abuse, safety issues, or platform concerns directly to the MatchDiary team.
Logout & Delete Account
- Logout — available from the Home dashboard header (logout icon). Signs you out without deleting your data.
- Delete Account — inside Account Settings. Schedules your account for permanent deletion. Contact your matchmaker before doing this.
Tips
- Keep your phone number visible to at least your matchmaker — they need it to send you magic links
- Enable all notifications initially — you can always turn off individual types later
- Use a strong password — avoid using the same password as your email or other apps
