☁️ About Cloud Sync
If you have enabled cloud sync and created an account:
- Deleting your account will remove both local and cloud data
- All synced data on our servers will be permanently deleted
- Data on all your devices will be removed
- This action cannot be undone
Alternative: If you only want to stop syncing but keep local data, you can disable cloud sync in Settings instead of deleting your account.
Alternative: Uninstall the App
If you simply uninstall the Pocket Hisaab app from your device, all locally stored data will be removed. However, if you reinstall the app later, you can start fresh.
Note: If you have a cloud sync account, uninstalling will only remove local data. You must delete your account separately to remove cloud data. Using the "Delete Account" feature in Settings provides a more explicit confirmation process and ensures complete data removal (both local and cloud).
What Happens After Deletion?
- All data is permanently deleted from your device
- No data recovery - Once deleted, data cannot be restored
- You can reinstall the app and start fresh if desired
- Cloud data deleted - All synced data on our servers is permanently removed
- If you exported your data, you can import it back after reinstalling
