Digital executor

Digital executor checklist — what to do day 1, week 1, month 1

The 30-step plan your family follows when they inherit your digital life. Print, hand to your executor, sleep well.

Most people name a digital executor without telling them what to actually do. Mylo's Digital Executor Checklist is the 30-step plan your executor follows — what to handle in the first 24 hours (cancel auto-renewing subscriptions, request Apple Legacy access), the first week (notify financial institutions, freeze credit), the first month (memorialise social accounts, transfer domain names), and the first year (closeout). Print, hand it over, breathe.

What you get

  • 30 numbered steps grouped by timeline — day 1, week 1, month 1, year 1
  • Specific platforms: Apple, Google, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, banks, ISPs, crypto exchanges
  • Pre-filled with YOUR account list if you also build the digital legacy plan
  • Printable PDF — many executors prefer paper in a stressful week
  • Includes evidence requirements (death certificate, executor letter) for each platform
  • Free to download — €9.99/mo to keep it synced with your actual account list

How it works

  1. 1. Identify your digital executor

    Many states recognise a "digital executor" as a separate role from your estate executor. Mylo explains the difference.

  2. 2. Build the account map

    Use the Digital Legacy planner to catalog accounts. Each entry feeds the checklist.

  3. 3. Generate the checklist

    Mylo turns your account map into a step-by-step action plan for your executor.

  4. 4. Hand off (privately)

    Print, share digitally, or store in a fire-safe. Your executor opens it on the day they need it.

How Mylo compares

Where common alternatives fall short.

Generic "what to do when someone dies" article

The problem: Doesn't reference YOUR accounts or YOUR platforms.

With Mylo: Mylo's checklist is pre-filled with the accounts you actually have.

Asking the executor to "figure it out"

The problem: They'll spend months chasing things, miss subscriptions for years.

With Mylo: 30 numbered steps with timing. They follow the list.

Buying a generic "after death" template

The problem: Out of date the day you buy it. Doesn't cover crypto, AI accounts, modern subscriptions.

With Mylo: Updated against current platform policies — Apple Legacy Contact, Google Inactive Account Manager, Facebook Memorialisation.

Frequently asked

Can my executor see this before I die?

Yes — many people share the checklist with the named executor while alive, so the executor isn't guessing in a crisis. Mylo supports both "share now" and "store privately".

What if I don't have a digital executor named in my will?

Your regular estate executor handles digital by default. Mylo explains how to name a separate digital executor if you want different people for different roles.

Are the evidence requirements current?

We update them quarterly against each platform's current policy page. Apple, Google, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, TikTok, major banks, top 10 crypto exchanges.

Can I just print a blank version?

Yes — the free blank PDF download covers the 30 steps without your account list. Subscribers get it pre-filled with the actual accounts they've mapped in Mylo.

What about international accounts?

Mylo covers US + EU. For accounts outside those regions, the checklist documents the steps to identify the right contact at each provider.
