Usage Notes

Important Note - only data that is in the free space will be wiped; this needs to be very clear. The easiest way to do this is to uninstall the App(s), use MicroCut, and then if you still need the Apps, re-install them later.

For some Apps it's not possible to uninstall them. In those cases, you need to get the App info (Long press and drag the App onto the info icon), clear its cache, clear its storage, and force the App to stop. And then wipe the free space with MicroCut.
