Hi Niklas, I agree that removing all apps information when they are deleted is the right thing to do (also to clean up things). However, I'm not sure what you mean by "another app with the same namespace": by "namespace", do you mean the <package>_<application> combination, or what?

I could see this being used for phishing when the user is asked to manually install a click package with the same namespace as another app, which would then allow bad entities to have access to the online accounts of the original app. It could either be presented as a completely seperate app when the user has removed the original one or as an "official version" by the people doing the phishing. Therefore, I vote for removing account information from apps when they are uninstalled.
