Completely removing Wispr Flow from your device

Mac

1. Quit Wispr Flow: click the Wispr Flow icon in the menu bar, then select Quit Wispr Flow.

2. Confirm Flow is not running: open Activity Monitor, search for Wispr Flow, and if any processes appear, select them and click Stop → Force Quit.

3. Remove the app: in Finder → Applications, drag Wispr Flow to the Trash, then empty the Trash.

4. Delete residual files.

   1. In Finder, press Shift + Command + G to open "Go to Folder."

   2. Move any Wispr Flow files or folders in each of these locations to the Trash:

      • ~/Library/Application Support/Wispr Flow (main data folder) — remove the main database file, any sidecar files in the same folder, and the session file; leftover sidecar files can cause issues on reinstall.

      • ~/Library/Logs/Wispr Flow (log files)

      • ~/Library/Application Support/Caches/Wispr Flow (application support caches)

      • Preference files in ~/Library/Preferences/, ~/Library/Saved Application State/, ~/Library/HTTPStorages/, and ~/Library/Caches/ (may not exist)

   3. Empty the Trash again.

5. Remove Wispr Flow from System Settings → General → Login Items.

6. Revoke system permissions: in System Settings → Privacy & Security, remove Wispr Flow from Accessibility, Microphone, Screen Recording, Full Disk Access, Automation, and Bluetooth if listed.

Reinstalling now starts fresh with no previous settings or data.

Windows

1. Confirm Flow is not running: right-click the taskbar, open Task Manager → Processes, and if Wispr Flow appears, select it and click End task.

2. Uninstall Wispr Flow: open Settings → Apps → Installed apps (or Apps & features on some versions), click Wispr Flow, select Uninstall, and follow the prompts.

3. Remove leftover folders.

   1. In File Explorer's address bar, go to each path (replace [YourUser] with your Windows username) and delete any Wispr Flow folders you find:

      • C:\Users\[YourUser]\AppData\Roaming\Wispr Flow (main data: database, preferences, session, logs)

      • C:\Users\[YourUser]\AppData\Local\WisprFlow (install directory)

      • C:\Users\[YourUser]\AppData\Local\Wispr Flow (app cache — may not exist)

      • C:\Users\[YourUser]\AppData\Roaming\Flow (legacy location from older versions — may not exist)

   2. Delete the main database file along with any sidecar files in the same folder; leftovers can cause issues on reinstall.

   3. Empty the Recycle Bin.

4. Remove Wispr Flow from startup: press Win + R, type shell:startup, and delete any Wispr Flow shortcut. No registry cleanup is required.

Reinstalling now starts fresh with no previous settings or data.

iOS

1. Sign out of Wispr Flow: open the app, tap the side menu icon, then go to Account → Sign Out.

   Important: To remove your account and server-side data — not just the app — go to Account → Delete Account. This deletes the remote user and signs out everywhere, and is irreversible.

2. Remove the Flow Keyboard extension: go to iOS Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards and delete Wispr Flow.

3. Remove the Flow Notes Lock Screen widget, if added: press and hold your Lock Screen, tap Customize, then tap the Wispr Flow widget slot and remove it.

4. Remove the Control Center buttons, if added: go to iOS Settings → Control Center, tap the red minus next to the Wispr Flow recording toggle and/or Flow Notes, then tap Remove.

5. Delete any custom Wispr Flow Siri Shortcuts or Automations you built: open the Shortcuts app, search Flow, then tap and hold each and tap Delete. Flow's built-in shortcuts (Dictate a Flow Note, Quick Dictation to Clipboard, Quick Dictation to Notes, Turn Flow On/Off, Open Flow Notes, Save Flow Note) are removed automatically when the app is deleted.

6. Delete the app: press and hold the Wispr Flow icon on your home screen, tap Remove App, then Delete App and confirm.

7. Confirm removal in iOS Settings → General → iPhone Storage (or iPad Storage): Wispr Flow should no longer be listed.

Reinstalling from the App Store now starts with a fresh app state.

Android

1. Sign out in the app: open Wispr Flow, tap the navigation drawer, then go to Account → Sign out.

   Note: Signing out deletes locally stored transcripts (audio and text) — the confirmation dialog asks "Sign out and delete transcripts?". Per-user preferences such as language and bubble size stay on the device and return when the same account signs in.

2. Force stop Flow: go to Settings → Apps (or Apps & notifications), tap Wispr Flow, tap Force stop, then confirm.

3. Clear app data: on the same app info screen, tap Storage or Storage & cache, then Clear storage or Clear data and confirm.

   Note: Clearing storage removes transcripts and this device's settings; custom dictionary words, snippets, and personalization styles sync to your account and return when you sign in again. Onboarding progress, total word count, and review-prompt tracking are device-global and removed only by Clear storage or uninstall, not by signing out.

4. Uninstall the app: tap Uninstall on the app info screen and confirm, or long-press the Wispr Flow icon on your home screen or app drawer and tap Uninstall.

5. Confirm removal in Settings → Apps: Wispr Flow should no longer be listed.

Reinstalling from the Play Store now starts with a fresh app state.

Flow signs back into my old account right after reinstalling

Residual app data remained. Repeat the steps for your platform, checking these causes:

• Mac / Windows: Confirm you removed every Library or AppData folder listed in the steps above.

• Android: Android Auto Backup may have restored your preferences (language, bubble size, privacy mode, dismissed cards, onboarding flags); sign-in sessions are excluded from backup and device transfer, so a restored device requires signing in again. To clear restored data, go to Settings → Apps → Wispr Flow → Storage → Clear storage, then uninstall again. To prevent restore entirely, disable Google account backup for Wispr Flow or delete the Wispr Flow snapshot from the Backups section in Google Drive before reinstalling.

• iOS: Your login session is shared with the Flow Keyboard extension and persists if the extension is still installed when you delete the app. Sign out and remove the extension first.

I don't see AppData or Library folders on my computer

These folders are hidden by default.

• Windows: Enable hidden items in File Explorer: View → Show → Hidden items.

• Mac: Press Shift + Command + G in Finder and type the full path (e.g., ~/Library/Application Support/Wispr Flow).

I get an error when trying to uninstall Wispr Flow

The app is still running in the background. Fully quit it using Activity Monitor (Mac) or Task Manager (Windows), then uninstall.

Will my custom dictionary be lost?

No. Custom dictionary words sync to your account and are fetched on every sign-in, so they return on any device. Locally stored items like transcripts and personalization styles are removed.
