Cancel Fireflies and delete what it has

Cancel the paid plan

1. In the Fireflies web app: Settings → Account, scroll to Subscriptions and click Cancel beside your plan. Pick a reason, skip or answer the assistant’s suggestions with Proceed With Cancellation, then Cancel Subscription.
2. Paid features last to the end of the billing period; then the account becomes a free one. You are not charged again.

Delete the account

1. Settings → Account, scroll to Delete Account, click Delete my account, give a reason if you like, then Delete Account.
2. The account is switched off at once, and everything in it is erased after 30 days. Until then Fireflies support can still recover it; after that nothing can.
3. Want a copy first? Fireflies sends a full export — audio, video, transcripts, summaries — on request, within 24 to 48 hours, as a download link that lasts 7 days.

Stop the emails

1. If you are the one being emailed: open a Fireflies recap email, click Unsubscribe, and enter your address.
2. If you are the user: Settings → Recording & Privacy → Email Notification, and set Meeting recap email to Only me so nobody else on the invite is sent your recaps.

Good to know

Deleting the account is what takes away Fireflies’ access to your calendar and stops it joining. If it still turns up, either somebody else invited uses Fireflies, or you only cancelled the subscription rather than deleting the account.

Not covered

Fireflies.ai's help pages, read 10 November 2026, say nothing we could find about deleting single recordings. Ask Fireflies.ai's support team rather than guess.

Only want Fireflies out of your meetings? How to stop it joining →

If a recording of you is in somebody else's account

Deleting your own account does not touch recordings other people made of meetings you were in — those belong to whoever recorded them. Ask that person to delete it, or ask Fireflies.ai to pass the request on.

Meetings without a notetaker to get rid of

Meetful writes the notes from each person's own microphone inside the meeting, so there is no bot to invite, no separate account holding your recordings, and anybody can leave themselves out of the notes.
