Delete your Steady data
Last updated October 1, 2026
This page explains how to delete your data from Steady: Sobriety & Habit Tracker, published by The Lix Group LLC. Steady has no accounts and no servers of its own, so almost everything is deleted directly by you, on your device.
1. Delete everything on your device
- Open Steady.
- Go to Settings → Privacy.
- Tap Delete all data, then confirm with Delete everything.
This immediately and permanently deletes every habit, start date, check-in, relapse log, journal entry, trigger, note, reason, toolkit contact, and setting stored on the device. It can't be undone, so export a copy first (Settings → Privacy → Export my data) if you might want it later. Uninstalling Steady also deletes all on-device data.
2. Delete your cloud backup (if you turned it on)
Premium cloud backups are encrypted on your device and stored in your own Google Drive or iCloud account, not with us. Deleting data in the app doesn't remove that backup. To remove it:
- Google Drive (Android): open drive.google.com on a computer, go to Settings → Manage apps, find Steady, then choose Options → Delete hidden app data. You can also choose Disconnect from Drive to revoke Steady's access.
- iCloud (iPhone): go to Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Account Storage, tap Steady, then tap Delete Data.
The backup is deleted as soon as you complete these steps. We can't delete it for you, because we have no access to your Drive or iCloud account.
3. Request deletion of your purchase record
If you bought the Premium lifetime unlock, our purchase-validation provider, RevenueCat, holds a record of that purchase (your purchase receipt and an anonymous app identifier). It holds no name, email address, or habit data. To have this record deleted:
- Email steady-support@lixlink.com with the subject "Data deletion request".
- Include your Google Play order number (it starts with GPA. and appears in your Google Play purchase receipt email) or your App Store receipt, so we can find the record.
We'll delete the record within 30 days and confirm by email. After that, your purchase can still be restored from Google Play or the App Store using Restore purchase, because the stores keep their own records.
What's deleted and what's kept
- Deleted: all on-device habit, check-in, journal, reason, toolkit, and settings data (step 1); your cloud backup (step 2); the RevenueCat purchase record (step 3).
- Kept by Google or Apple, not by us: your purchase transaction, which Google Play or the App Store retains under its own policies for billing, refunds, and legal requirements.
- Retention: we keep nothing after a deletion request is completed. There's no additional retention period.
