How to reset app (including removing all data and data structure)

Hi, I just found out that one of my POC apps (inactive for a long time) was auto renewed, so I plan to use it for something else.
I’ve deleted everything in the database but I know the “things” are still stored somewhere because I can still see Restore option.
How do I reset everything and make it a brand new environment?

You can. completely remove deleted fields by using the ‘Optimize app’ feature.

Something I noticed when using the optimize app feature…

if I previously deleted something and then decided to use it again, it was deleted during the use of the optimize app feature.

I had added some features, then deleted them, then added them back and when I used the optimize feature it deleted all those.

I’m guessing that is because of something to do with reverting back?

I had a big surprise the first time I used the feature.

It could be it was something else I had done, but it was the only thing I could figure out.
