Do modern, widely-used data-cleaning softwares/apps such as CCleaner and Clean Master recognize localStorage, and can they delete them?
I'm asking because if I were to have users who use these apps, if there's a chance that they'd delete their storage, and if there is a chance, I'd like to know exactly what kind of a warning message to display to them, like websites do with cookies.
Users can delete their localStorage for all sites by doing a full clear of their cache/browsing history. See here for a more complete answer. It therefore seems likely that either of those applications would also perform this 'cleaning'.
Perhaps you could allow your users to export and import their data as a way around this 👍
