How To Delete a Group on Life360? [2024 Quick Guide]

Part 1: How To Delete a Group on Life360 as an Admin

You cannot directly delete a group on Life360, even as an Admin. One workaround you can do is to remove the members one by one and then leave the Circle. It's important to remember that removing group members and leaving a Circle are permanent actions. Once you remove a member, they won't be able to rejoin unless invited again.

Before You Delete a Group on Life360

If you're the only Admin, you must appoint a new Admin before deleting the Circle group. If not, Life360 will assign a new one automatically. Circle Admins can remove members, edit Places, and more. So, pick someone trustworthy and responsible for these tasks. Here are the steps on how to change the Circle Admin in the Life360 app before you remove a group member:

• Step 1: Open the Life360 app and select the Circle you want to delete.

• Step 2: Tap on Settings in the top-left corner of the screen and go to Circle Management.

• Step 3: Under Circle Management section, tap on Change Admin Status.

• Step 4: You'll see a list of all Circle members. Toggle the switch next to the name of the member you want to grant or revoke Admin privileges.

Delete a Group on Life360

After you've assigned a new Circle admin, you can leave the group on the Life360 app. But, if all the members want to delete the group, you don't have to assign a new Circle admin. You only must remove all the Circle members and then leave the Circle. Here's how to remove the group members on Life360 and delete the group as the Admin:

• Step 1: Tap the Circle Switcher at the top of the screen and choose the Circle you wish to edit.
• Step 2: Tap on the Settings icon in the upper left corner of the app.

• Step 3: Go to Circle Management and tap Delete Circle Members.

• Step 4: Select the name of the member you want to remove.

Note:

The removed member will receive a notification about it.

• Step 5: Select Yes in the dialogue box to confirm the action.

• Step 6: Go to the Circle Management section once you're the only member left.
• Step 7: Scroll down and choose Leave Circle.

• Step 8: Confirm your choice by tapping Yes in the dialogue box. It will automatically delete the Circle group on Life360, as you'll be the last member.

Part 2: How To Delete a Group on Life360 as a Member?

As a member of a Life360 Circle, you cannot directly delete the group yourself. To work around this, consider leaving the group if you're not the creator. You can do this by following these steps:

• Step 1: Open the Life360 app on your smartphone, then select the Circle you want to leave at the top navigation pane.
• Step 2: Tap Settings (gear icon) in the upper left side.
• Step 3: Choose Circle Management, then tap Leave Circle.

• Step 4: Select Yes to confirm you intend to remove yourself from the Life360 group.

Once you leave a Circle, you won't be able to see other members' locations, receive notifications, or rejoin unless invited again. Now you know how to leave the groups on Life360. Let's go into another granular level of control: managing individual locations.

Part 3: How To Delete a Location on Life360?

Only the person who created the Place or an Admin of the Circle can delete it. If you didn't create the Place and aren't an Admin, you won't be able to delete it. Perhaps your child no longer goes to a certain school, or you no longer need alerts for a specific location. Here's how to delete a location on Life360:

• Step 1: On the Life360 app, navigate to the Location or Places tab at the bottom.
• Step 2: Scroll down and tap Places. It will show you a list of all the Places that have been created in your Circle.

• Step 3: Find the location you want to delete and tap on it.

• Step 4: Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and tap on Delete Place.

• Step 5: Tap Yes in the dialogue box to confirm your decision to delete the location, which will permanently remove it from your Circle.

Life360 Places are virtual fences you set up on the app to get notified when Circle members enter or leave specific locations. These are commonly used for places like home, school, work, or daycare. So, deleting a Place will remove any associated Place notifications. If you had set up notifications for when someone arrived or left a location, these would also be deleted.

And if you are asking how to delete a location on Life360, specifically driving and location history, it is impossible. It means you cannot selectively remove specific trips or visits from your past data.

But you can do a couple of things to manage your data privacy. One is to leave a Circle or delete your Life360 account. You can delete your account if you no longer need or want to use Life360. It will erase all your data, including driving and location history, from Life360's servers.
