Delete your Aosansaku data
Aosansaku, by Vincent Deruaz (Heron Bleu on Google Play), has no account and no server holding your walks. Your data is on your phone, so you delete it there.
Delete everything
- Optional: keep a copy first with Settings, Export data.
- Uninstall Aosansaku.
- Android: long-press the app icon, then Uninstall. Or Settings, Apps, Aosansaku, Uninstall.
- iPhone: long-press the app icon, Remove App, Delete App.
Uninstalling deletes all walks, routes, spots, photos, notes, visits and collections right away. Nothing is kept by the developer.
On Android you can also clear the data without uninstalling: Settings, Apps, Aosansaku, Storage, Clear storage.
Delete part of your data
- A walk: open it in History, then Delete Session. Its spots and their photos go with it.
- A spot and its photos: open the spot, open its menu, then Delete spot.
What is deleted, what is kept
- Deleted: everything the app stores on your phone (routes, locations, spots, photos, notes, ratings, visits, collections, settings).
- Google Drive backup (if you turned it on): uninstalling does not delete it. In Google Drive on the web, open Settings, Manage apps, Aosansaku, then Delete hidden app data, and Disconnect from Drive.
- Not touched: backups you exported yourself (
aosansaku-backup-<date>.zip) and files you shared. Delete those where you saved them. - Android only, crash reports and usage events: sent anonymously to Google Firebase, with no name, email, route or photo. They are not linked to you, so they cannot be looked up per person. Firebase deletes them automatically: crash reports after 90 days, usage events after at most 14 months. Uninstalling stops any new ones.
The iPhone app sends nothing off your phone.
