Delete your data

How to delete all your Mito data

Mito stores your training data on your device. You are always in full control. This page explains how to remove every trace of it, both locally and from Google Drive.

What data Mito stores

Mito is offline-first. By default, all of your data — exercises, workouts, sets, body measurements, settings — lives in a single encrypted SQLite database on your phone. Nothing is uploaded to any Mito server, because there is no Mito server.

Two optional features can place data outside the app:

1. Delete data on your phone

You have two options, depending on whether you want to keep using the app or remove it entirely.

Option A — Reset all data, keep the app

  1. Open Mito.
  2. Go to Settings → Data & Privacy.
  3. Tap Delete all data.
  4. Confirm. The local database is wiped and the app returns to its first-run state.

Option B — Uninstall the app

  1. Long-press the Mito icon on your home screen or app drawer.
  2. Tap Uninstall (or drag it to the uninstall area).
  3. Confirm.

Uninstalling removes the entire app and its private storage, including the SQLite database, settings and any cached files. Android does this automatically — Mito does not leave files behind in shared storage.

Want to clear data without uninstalling?

You can also use Android's system-level reset:

  1. Open the system Settings app.
  2. Go to Apps → Mito → Storage & cache.
  3. Tap Clear storage (sometimes called Clear data).

2. Delete your Google Drive backup

If you ever turned on Google Drive backup, a single file lives inside a hidden per-app folder on your Drive. Because this folder uses the Drive appDataFolder scope, it is invisible in the normal Drive web interface — but you can still remove it.

Option A — Delete from inside Mito (recommended, while the app is still installed)

  1. Open Mito.
  2. Go to Settings → Backup & Sync → Google Drive.
  3. Tap Delete cloud backup.
  4. Confirm. Mito connects to Drive and removes the backup file from your app folder.

This also works if you only want to delete the cloud copy and keep your data on the phone.

Option B — Revoke Mito's access to your Google Account

This stops Mito (or anyone with the app) from reading or writing anything on your Drive. Google itself will then delete the hidden app folder.

  1. Visit myaccount.google.com/permissions.
  2. Sign in with the Google account you used in Mito.
  3. Find Mito in the list of apps with access.
  4. Click Mito, then Remove access.

After you revoke access, Google removes the hidden appDataFolder contents associated with Mito within a short period. The exact timing is controlled by Google, not by us.

3. Delete your AI Coach API key (if applicable)

If you used the optional AI Coach with your own API key:

  1. Open Mito → Settings → AI Coach.
  2. Tap Remove API key.

Mito stores your API key only on your device, in Android's encrypted preference storage. Removing it (or uninstalling the app) erases it locally.

Mito does not retain any record of your AI Coach conversations. To delete past prompts and responses on the AI provider's side, follow that provider's data-deletion process directly (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google AI Studio).

4. Verify everything is gone
