I'm no longer on WhatsApp but I still appear.

Solved

Hello,
I uninstalled WhatsApp on my Android mobile because I no longer wish to use it. However, my contacts still see me and send me messages on WhatsApp.
How can I fix this issue?
Thank you for your help

Configuration: Windows / Firefox 83.0

    Hello,
    uninstalling the Wathsapp application does not delete your Whatsapp account, you need to delete your Wathsapp account https://faq.whatsapp.com/android/account-and-profile/how-to-delete-your-account/?lang=fr

      Thank you very much for this response, but following the link, the first instruction is to open Whatsapp. But how can I open it since I uninstalled it? I don't have it anymore. So I can't delete my account.

      It's a bit like having locked my car key inside the car. I can't open it anymore.

      @chmielThink a little, to open Whatsapp you need to reinstall it and then delete your account, you're seriously lacking logic, do things in order and you'll see everything will go as indicated on the page.

      @bazfileWell okay, thanks. I'll do that tomorrow. It's true, I lack logic, but don't hold it against me, I'm blonde ;-)

    You have to wait up to 90 days after deleting your account for the information to be removed.
    I also had this problem.

      Hello

      Please, did your profile picture appear after deletion during those 90 days?

      And thank you
