How to Deactivate Users?

Whilst you cannot remove users, you can deactivate users who are no longer eligible to use the their Moves+ account/app. 

Examples of why a user may be deactivated include:

  • Left the university;
  • Have been inactive for a considerable amount of time;
  • Have a duplicate account; and/or
  • Entered the wrong email at registration (e.g. unverified status).

Any user who is deactivated will:

  • Not be able to log into the app or use their email address to create a new account.
  • Have their tracker disconnected, and no additional points will be logged.
  • Have their historical data remain on reports.

Please find the guides below to deactivating an individual user or bulk users.
