Completely reinstalling or removing MoneyWiz on a device allows you to remove the local database file which is useful if you need to pull the "fresh" set of data from MoneyWiz Cloud/SYNCbits (which is why we sometimes call it "clean sync") or just completely remove MoneyWiz from a device. Please note that sometimes just removing MoneyWiz from your device is not sufficient - please read on to learn the details.

If you wish to make a backup beforehand, please see this guide.

Due to iOS design, removing an application from your device also deletes all associated data. For this reason, it's sufficient to just remove the application and the iOS system will do the rest - if you install MoneyWiz again, it'll be completely cleared.

Now after app reinstall you should see a totally empty database -- that is important. If after reinstall you are still signed in, please check again as the local data was not removed.
