Delete ALL relevant local files once account is removed #627
Comments
I think there was a discussion about it, either here or back then on ownCloud repo... When removing the account the user should get a warning "all files will be deleted from your phone and stay on server" to make sure the user knows what it is doing. |
Less options, more defaults - since the files stay on the server no harm done. But @jancborchardt is our UX guy, so let's just wait for him... |
(label 1.-4. are only for PRs, Issue should only have these labels "none", "approved", "pr exists"). |
I'd also say there should then be a warning that the files will be removed from the device but like Mario argues for the default also say that if the user chooses to remove the account the files will be always be deleted. So there shouldn't be an option remove the account but keep the files. Else just don't remove the account. ;) |
@AndyScherzinger some bugs in your answer maybe? :D |
I edited the comment, tl;dr: Show a warning with the options OK and Cancel, but don't provide the option "Remove account but keep data locally". |
I can live with that, even though I'm always a fan of less warnings, especially with things that are easily revertable (like removing an account from an app is). :) |
It is not about the part of re-adding the account but of possibly having to re-download all the files ;) |
Should this apply to server password revocation as well. If security is a concern it would make sense content is made unavailable. Not sure how much can really be done unless device gets proper intrrnet access. Or maybe should this be left to antitheft apps instead. |
Yep, just delete but with a warning is nice cause it's a very destructive action (hassle to add the account again) and very seldomly done. As @AndyScherzinger proposed. |
merged to master for 1.5.0 |
Currently when you remove an account all files stay on your phone.
This is, IMHO, a very big security problem and should be remedied for 1.5.0.
Todo:
Show a warning with the options OK and Cancel, but don't provide the option "Remove account but keep data locally".
