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.)

    At least for me (grapheneos) when i uninstall an app it asks if i want to keep the apps data, and i always uncheck the box so it doesn’t get saved. But @deeznutz@lemmy.dbzer0.com is probably right, go to the app info and clear storage before uninstalling to totally wipe it
