I'm using +[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]
to store application settings. This consists of roughly a dozen string values. Is it possible to delete these values permanently instead of just setting them to a default value?
You can remove the application's persistent domain like this:
NSString *appDomain = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundleIdentifier];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] removePersistentDomainForName:appDomain];
In Swift 3 and later:
if let bundleID = Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier {
UserDefaults.standard.removePersistentDomain(forName: bundleID)
}
This is similar to the answer by @samvermette but is a little bit cleaner IMO.
