title: Remove a Status profile from your profile list
---
If you don't want a profile to show up on your device, you can remove it.
:::info
A profile removed from your device is not deleted. Check out [Delete your Status profile][delete-your-status-profile].
:::
## What to expect
- When you remove a profile from one device, the associated data is deleted from that device. To delete the data from all devices, repeat the procedure on all devices where you use the profile.
- If you don't log into your Status profile for 30 days or more (on any device), your crypto funds are safe, but your profile is [irrecoverably lost][delete-your-status-profile]. You can always create another Status profile [using your recovery phrase][create-or-restore-your-status-profile-using-a-recovery-phrase]
