I have an A53, running Android 13. I’ve recently noticed that if I uninstall an app and the reinstall it, it still has login credentials. That leads me to believe that uninstall isn’t really deleting all the associated data.

How do I truly purge all the data from these apps from my phone?

I tried to Google the issue, but all the answers wanted me to download additional software, which seems antithetical to my goal.

(Please keep it simple; I’m not so good with tech.)

    Maybe you have another app installed with which the app in question can share logins?

    I’ve noticed that some apps like those from Meta can somehow share logins. For example, if I have Facebook installed and logged in, and I install the Oculus app, it will prompt me to sign in with my Facebook account.
