Samsung Galaxy S4 Min - clearing remote data
Jon_Clay
22-03-2015
Hi there

I have accidentally hit the Clear Server Data within the predictive text section on my S4 Mini. I can't see any change to the phone, but I wondered if anyone could please let me know exactly what I've cleared?

Many thanks
Jon

The phone collects data on the words and phrases you use, and sends these to a server where they are stored anonymously. Pressing 'clear server data' deletes this remotely stored information.

You shouldn't see any difference, apart from slightly less accurate predictions.

Thank you, Stig.

That is kind of what I was trying to do, except I was trying to only delete specific words and not all of them. Oh well!!

Thanks again
Jon
