How Can I Remove My Phone Number From Hiya?

Hiya is an excellent app for identifying incoming calls and blocking unwanted ones. However, before using the app, you must provide your details, including your phone number. For this reason, Hiya is one of the largest contact information databases. If you no longer want to keep using the app, one question will run through your mind: how do I remove my phone number from Hiya? There are numerous reasons for removing your phone number from the app. For starters, your number will be available for all to see, violating your online privacy. Thankfully, you can use DoNotPay to remove your number from Hiya in just a few clicks. We can also help you remove personal information from the internet easily.

Why Removing Your Number From Hiya Is Difficult

Hiya profits from having your information in its database. The company sells caller profile information, especially phone numbers, to identify calls and block unwanted ones. They won't allow you to delete your number from their database easily, even after opting out of the service.

In their terms and conditions, they claim you can remove your phone number from Hiya’s site when you delete the app. Nonetheless, it's a frustrating process with multiple hurdles. Hiya makes your phone number available to its users with a simple search, which is why they make it difficult for you to delete it from their database. Hiya also sells users' contact information to brokers, who sell it to advertisers to create targeted ads. For this reason, the app makes it difficult for users to delete their contact information, knowing too well they're likely to give up once they encounter many hurdles along the way.

How to Remove My Number From Hiya on My Own

If you're concerned about your Internet privacy, removing your number from Hiya is the right decision. However, before you delete your number from Hiya's database, you first need to deactivate your account. Here's how to go about it:

1. Open the Hiya app on your smartphone.
2. Sign in to your account if you're logged out.
3. Scroll down to the Settings section and click on Privacy.
4. When the new page opens, select the Deactivate Account option.
5. A pop-up will appear, asking you to authenticate the deactivation request. Click on Yes to deactivate your Hiya account.

Even after deactivating your Hiya account, there's no guarantee that your phone number and other details will be deleted from the app's database. If that's the case, you can explore these options to delete your number from Hiya:

• Hiring an expert to remove your number and other details from Hiya's database.
• Ask the company to remove your number from their database.
• Unsubscribing from Hiya's marketing emails after deactivating your account.

It's best to remember that these methods are not always successful. They're also time-consuming and expensive, especially if you decide to hire someone to remove your contact details from Hiya.
