Behaviour of storage on app deletion #7

Can you please help me understand as to what happens to the data when the app is uninstalled. Does redux-persist-sensitive-storage keep the data or does it just destroy it ??

randycoulman commented 7 years ago

I'm not positive about this, but I believe that on iOS, the data outlives the app, but not a complete wipe of the phone. On Android, I think the data goes away with the app, but if you use the keystore branch it may behave differently.

Ultimately, this library is based on react-native-sensitive-info for the actual storage, so you might get a clearer answer from that project.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.
