What happens if I take no action on my inactive account?

  • If you aren't using any paid resources, we will delete your account starting October 26, 2022. We will also delete any unpaid apps and add-ons that solely belong to an inactive account.
  • Paid apps and add-ons on inactive accounts won't be deleted, but we advise that you log into your account on a periodic basis.

In addition to our plans for inactive account deletion, Heroku is also ending free Heroku Dynos, free Heroku Postgres and free Heroku Data for Redis plans starting November 28, 2022. You must upgrade your free dynos and data add-ons to paid plans before this date to avoid disruption to your apps or the deletion of data. See our Removal of Heroku Free Product Plans FAQ for more info.
