Logout
Log out on Profile.
Screen path: Profile → Log out. If forms, photos, signatures, or outbox rows are still pending/rejected/conflict, Field warns: Pending sync operations. Confirm Sign out anyway or Cancel. Native Field is not the Field PWA.
Preconditions
Section titled “Preconditions”A Field session. Optional FCM registration is deleted on logout (DELETE /api/v1/field/installations). Tokens leave secure storage. Drift and media stay.
- Open Sync. Prefer Up to date before you leave.
- Open Profile → Log out.
- If warned Pending sync operations, Cancel and Sync now, or confirm Sign out anyway.
- Confirming Sign out anyway keeps files on disk but stops sync until that user signs in again.
- The next person with the same account sees the cache; a different account uses a different store.
Logout does not wipe the local database or private media. Data stays keyed by user and workspace. That matters on a shared device.
Recommended: Sync now until Up to date, then log out.
This is not a remote wipe and not a secure-erase promise.
What works / does not work
Section titled “What works / does not work”| Works | Does not work | |
|---|---|---|
| Keep Drift / photos after logout | Yes | Remote wipe from the office |
| Shared phone | Per-user database | One cache for every account |
| Uninstall / clear storage | Drops everything | Recovering pending work |
If you must hand the phone to someone else: sync first, then log out. Do not factory-reset to “secure” the device unless you accept losing unsynced work.
