Your data
Delete your data
Checkin doesn’t have accounts yet: your places live only on your iPhone. You can erase all of them anytime, right in the app. Here’s how, and exactly what happens.
In the app
- Open your passport
Open Checkin and tap your passport picture in the top right of Map or Library.
- Go to Settings
Tap the gear icon.
- Tap Delete my data
Scroll to the bottom of Settings and tap Delete my data.
- Keep a copy (optional)
Tap Export my places first to save a CSV and GPX file.
- Confirm
Tap Delete my data, then Delete. It happens right away and can’t be undone.
What’s erased
- All your places, with their sources and tips
- Your trips and collections
- Your notes, check-ins and stamps
- Your preferences
Everything is erased from your iPhone and Checkin goes back to the welcome screen.
What can stay on our servers
- Links you imported, in our import logs, for up to 14 days after each import
- Abuse-prevention logs (a one-way hash, not your name)
- Public business information and public post images in our place catalog
- Copies in provider backups, overwritten within about 30 days
- Records we must keep by law
Checkin has no accounts, so none of this is tied to your name or email.
Premium isn’t cancelled by this
Your subscription is billed by Apple, and deleting your data doesn’t cancel it. Cancel it in your iPhone’s Settings › Apple Account (your name) › Subscriptions › Checkin, at least 24 hours before it renews.
Something else?
For any other request, like removing your import records sooner or a question about your data, write to us at itscheckinapp@gmail.com. Deleting the Checkin app also removes the places stored in it on that iPhone.
