Memahami Perbezaan: Deactivate vs. Delete
Before we dive in, it's crucial to understand the difference between deactivating and deleting your account. Think of deactivation as hitting the pause button. Your profile disappears, but your information is still there, waiting for you to return. You get a 30-day grace period (180 days in India) to change your mind and reactivate.
Deleting your account, however, is permanent. All your Snapchat history – snaps, chats, everything – is gone for good after a 30-day (or 180-day in India) waiting period. Absolutely sure you want to do this?

You can reactivate anytime within the grace period. Permanent deletion, however, is irreversible after the 180-day waiting period specific to India.
