Ever felt like your writing could use a boost? Grammarly is a tool that steps in to enhance your writing. I use it regularly for checking spelling and grammar mistakes, and it’s great at making my writing more concise and dynamic. With Grammarly, I can set specific writing goals and get feedback tailored to those objectives. It categorizes its feedback, so I always know where I’m improving and where I still need work. I use Grammarly as a desktop application and in my browser, making it convenient for all my writing needs.
If you uninstall Grammarly from your Mac, your account stays active. This is useful if you want to keep using Grammarly on other devices. But if you decide to delete your account completely, I’ll guide you through that process at the end of this article.
Using Grammarly regularly, I find it helpful for keeping my writing in check across multiple devices. Uninstalling it from your Mac doesn’t mean you lose access to your account or the benefits it provides on other devices. This flexibility allows you to manage your writing tools based on your current needs.
Now, if you want to remove your account entirely or cancel your subscription, there are a few steps you need to follow. Make sure you understand the impact of deleting your account before proceeding. It's straightforward, but I’ll make sure to cover all the necessary steps later in the article.
Staying informed about how your tools work is key to making the most of them. Whether you’re uninstalling Grammarly from one device or deciding to delete your account, knowing these details can help you manage your writing resources effectively.
Uninstalling Grammarly isn't just about dragging the application to the Trash. It leaves files in different locations on your Mac. Here's a detailed guide to help you remove it completely:
You need to remove additional files that Grammarly placed in your system:
~/Library/Application Support/
and press Return. Look for any folders or files named 'Grammarly' and drag them to the Trash.~/Library/Caches/
and press Return. Again, look for 'Grammarly' files and move them to the Trash.~/Library/Saved Application State/
and press Return. Find any 'Grammarly' files and drag them to the Trash.To uninstall Grammarly from your Mac, first, quit the application and use Activity Monitor to stop any remaining processes. Then, drag the Grammarly application to the Trash and delete additional files from the ~/Library/Application Support/, ~/Library/Caches/, and ~/Library/Saved Application State/ folders before emptying the Trash. One thing I like about this method is that it ensures all files are completely removed, keeping your system clean. However, I don't like that it requires multiple steps and locations, which can be tedious.
