Device habits
Before selling or giving away a phone with chat
A factory reset helps. Signing out of private chat first is still smart.
Sign out of Chatkode
Open Chatkode in the browser on that phone and sign out fully. Remove saved passwords from the browser if any were stored. Your past conversations were protected; signing out removes easy session access on that device.
Clear browser data for the site
Clear site data or use the browser’s remove-password and clear-data tools for app.chatkode.com. Then perform a full device reset if you are selling or recycling the phone.
Confirm on your new device
Sign in on your new phone, re-enable app lock, and confirm you can reach the people who matter. Keep using username chat without handing out your phone number.
FAQ
Quick answers
Is a factory reset enough?
It is important. Also sign out of Chatkode and clear saved browser logins before the reset when you can.
Does signing out delete my account?
No. It ends the session on that device. Your account remains for sign-in elsewhere.
