How do I delete a sim? I have to add a "baby" but I can't until I get rid of a sim. I already tried changing the clothes and pressing the red button with the person and the "X" over it, but it says the sim is needed for a tutorial so I'm not allowed to abondoned it. Please help!

Click the button on the right hand side which brings you to the section where you can change clothes/hairstyle etc. When there you will see a red button at the top-left of the screen. This allows you to delete a sim.

You should be able to click the Sim you want to delete and a red circle or other picture ( right of the name ) should pop up ! If not then I have not heard of that version were it doesn't ..... Try updating or something ?

By mistake I removed baby sim how add again
Blueline29 answered:

Re the above answer--in the question, you'll see that the poster mentioned not being able to delete a sim via the method you described due to getting a "sim is needed for the tutorial" error. I'd also like an answer to this, as I'm having the same issue. What tutorial? Why provide the option to delete if it's never functional?

If you just want to delete your sim press on your sim and it will show this 🚫and when you press that it will delete your sim
Guest said: 14th Nov 2015 | REPORT
If you can't delete a Sim because he's needed for a tutorial, delete another Sim. (Different Sim.) Or, wait until you can level up, where you automatically are allowed to have a new Sim in your town. (The new baby Sim.)

There is no red button on my game to delete any sims. How do i delete one.
Guest answered:

To anybody that deleted there Sims: If you deleted you'r sims freeplay app and want all the progress and money back sadly there isn't a way to do that but there is something helpful with the money and it should make the progress go up and the Town Value. This cheat makes money mail pop up and it gives you you'r pay from the Houses. Here is what you do: Buy enough gardens for all you'r sims and have all you'r sims plant most expensive plant. Next go to you'r settings and go to general. You will find an option that says set date and time, go to it. Turn you'r time to a year later. Next double click the home button and you should find the sims freeplay app. Hold it down and when the minus sign pops up hit it. Finally go back to you'r game and all the plants will be done and the money in you'r mailbox will be there and if you go to the town you will see that everyone has the money icon above their house. Well I hope this helped and don't forget you can always use this cheat.

-Warning: Make sure you turn you'r date back!

Guest answered:

When you go to change their clothes there is a red X with a sim on it the X is on the left hand side of the Sim the corner when you click that it will ask you if you want that sim to move out of town. If you do want it to move out the house it owned will stay the same and someone else can move in.

Guest answered:

Go to your wardrobe/closet, then click change clothes. When you go onto the next screen there should be a little red x in the corner of the screen. Just press that and they are gone.

On the newest version (5.6.0) the delete button in the wardrobe is gone. So you can delete your sim by clicking on the sim, and on the top right corner, there will be a delete button. Hope this helps 😊

First go to the sim tracker and select the sim you want gone and tap it
Then you will see a red blocked button next to the Sims head
Tap it and it will say

Then tap yes

You click in the Sim that has the green diamond aboveband click the red circle ex out thingy and they moved out of town.
Guest answered:

In the recently updated version, instead of going to the wardrobe, you can simply tap your character and it will give you that "Happy Birthday" option. When you see their name at the top, you'll see a picture of themselves with a red circle and a dash going through it. It will ask if you want to kick them out of town and you're done!

Guest answered:

Tap on the sim and it has a red circle with a red line so that means delete a sim

Guest answered:

What you do is tap on the Sim you would like to delete. When you tap on it there's a red X that you will see. Tap that red X and it will ask you if you'd like to delete the Sim. You choose yes and voila, the Sim is gone!

Guest answered:

Click the sim you want to delete and by their picture there should be a red circle with the 'no' symbol click that and you can get rid of the sim.

Click on the sim you want to delete and next to the name at the top with be a red circle with a line through it. Click on that and say move town. That's how to delete a sim!

Guest answered:

To delete a Sim tap on it, his or her actions will appear on the screen. That's what you should see. In the arc of actions, look to their name and press the red button, it will ask you if you want them to move out of town, this just means to delete them ( I don't think you can get them back...). If you don't see their aVaio able action on screen, the possibilities are that your Sim is already busy performing an action. Press the red button to quit the action and return to the first step.

Put the plumbob* over the sim you want to delete. Then, with the plumbob over the Sims head, click on him/her. The sims name, and well as the options "have birthday" and " extreme make over" should pop up. In the top right corner, next to the name, there should be a picture of the sim with this sign next to it:🚫. Click on that. Then it will ask you if you want to delete the sim click yes. And you're done! Good luck!!!
* a plumbob is the green diamond above your Sims head when that character is selected

There is a Quest… don’t remember the name but it allows for Sims to Age and die once completed. It allows them to have personalities and life Goals and that’s how you get the life orb for the island.
