# GitHub: revoke a GitHub App's authorization (repeat task)

## Steps
1. Click your profile picture (top right) → **Settings**.
2. In the left sidebar's "Integrations" section, click **Applications**.
3. Select the **Authorized GitHub Apps** tab.
4. Find the app and click **Revoke** (or click **Revoke all** to remove every authorized app at once).

## End state
The app loses permission to access the account; only the person who originally authorized the app can revoke it this way (an organization owner uninstalls the app from the organization account instead to achieve the same effect for org resources).
