    Navigate to https://www.my.slack.com/admin/settings. Because the Slack app does not support deactivating an account, you’ll have to use your Android’s web browser.[1]
    • Deactivating an account will not delete messages or files you posted. You’ll have to do that manually.
    • If you are the Primary Owner of the team from which you want to delete your account, you must transfer the team to another member first. You can do this at https://my.slack.com/admin/transfer.
