Apple Announces a New Deadline for Developers to Include In-App Deletion Option

According to Apple, all App Store apps that allow users to set up a new account must also provide a means for them to delete that account and the deadline set for the purpose is 30th June 2022. App Store Review Guidelines 5.1.1(v), which defines what apps can and cannot do regarding account sign-in, explains these changes. Some of the guidelines are entailed below: Apple said account deletion “should be straightforward to find” within the app, in addition to providing a means for users to deactivate their accounts. If the app makes use of Apple’s Sign in, the developer must ensure that the user’s tokens have been revoked after the account has been terminated. The guidelines also state that the application must allow users to completely erase their accounts, and not only deactivate them. All personal information related to that account must be removed. Of course, this is just another option to give customers more control over their data while using third-party apps, assuring even more privacy.
