Data & deletion: today and how to do it

The current prototype has no account, so there is no cloud data to delete. Here is how the on-device data can be cleared.

Current status

No account = no cloud data

AERA is currently an iOS local prototype: no account, sign-in, or cloud sync. There is no account or data on a server to delete, and no account-deletion flow to walk through.

On-device data

What lives on this device

The prototype only stores the following on your device (all local, nothing uploaded):

checklist / workbench

Your lists and workbench content, stored in on-device UserDefaults.

Mock Health (simulated health data)

Example data from a local simulator, not real health data.

How to clear

Clear all local data

The current prototype has no in-app "clear data" button, so deleting the app is the reliable way:

1Press and hold the AERA icon on the Home Screen
2Tap "Delete App" and confirm
3Reinstall and the prototype starts fresh

Deleting the app removes its entire sandbox, including all local data. This cannot be undone, so make sure you don't need anything first.

A future account version

In-app deletion will come with accounts

If a future version of AERA adds accounts and cloud data, it will include an in-app "delete account and data" option, with confirmation and the chance to export first. This page will be updated then.

Scope

A note
