Remove AT&T ActiveArmor and your personal data

You can deactivate, downgrade, or uninstall the app from your phone.



Remove ActiveArmor and your personal data

If you pay for ActiveArmor advanced through an app provider, don’t forget to cancel the subscription in Google Play™ or Apple App Store®. This will help you avoid future charges. 

Once your app subscription expires, you also have to remove the ActiveArmor service.

  2. Tap Subscription and choose Remove service. Then, follow the prompts.

Your personal data used to perform the functions of AT&T ActiveArmor service will be removed within 48 hours of cancellation.

Downgrade from ActiveArmor advanced mobile security to free ActiveArmor mobile security

You have to downgrade from AT&T ActiveArmor advanced mobile security the same way you signed up for it. For example, if you subscribed from an app provider on your phone, you’ll have to cancel your subscription there too. When you do, your account will close at the end of your current subscription period, and you won’t be charged again.

  1. Open the AT&T ActiveArmor app and go to Settings.
  2. Tap subscription, then Change Subscription.
  3. Select Downgrade to Free.
  4. Tap Confirm.

  5. Tap Cancel subscription and follow the prompts.

Your personal data used to perform the functions of AT&T ActiveArmor service will be removed within 48 hours of cancellation.

Cancel Apple subscription

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Select your name or Apple ID.
  3. Select Subscriptions and look for AT&T ActiveArmor.
  4. Tap Cancel subscription and follow the prompts.

Your personal data used to perform the functions of AT&T ActiveArmor service will be removed within 48 hours of cancellation.

Uninstall the app

Just uninstalling the app doesn’t remove the service from your account. You must complete all steps to deactivate and remove AT&T ActiveArmor mobile security to stop billing.

If you’ve completed the steps to deactivate the service, you can remove or disable the app on your device.
