If the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} was previously suspended, you can unsuspend the app by clicking **Unsuspend**.

1. To uninstall a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} and block it from accessing resources owned by your account, click **Uninstall**.
When you delete a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %}, your authorization of the app (if the app is installed on your personal account) or the authorization of the app by members of your organization (if the app is installed on an organization) will be revoked. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/apps/using-github-apps/authorizing-github-apps).
When you uninstall a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} from an account, the app will lose access to the resources in that account. The app might still be authorized to access organizations on your behalf, if it has installations in those organizations.
If you want to stop an app from acting on your behalf anywhere on {% data variables.product.github %}, also de-authorize the app in the "Authorized {% data variables.product.prodname_github_apps %}" tab of your user account. This will fully deactivate any tokens issued to the app on your behalf. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/apps/using-github-apps/authorizing-github-apps).
