I'm working on an app that will store a significant amount of data in the user's iCloud account using CloudKit. If the user uninstalls the app, we want to be able to tell them how to remove all of that data from their account.

If we were using iCloud Documents then the answer is straightforward – Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage. Is there a similar answer for CloudKit?

Going to Settings > iCloud > Apps using iCloud and toggling our app seems to disable iCloud usage on that device without removing data from iCloud all together. Woudl disabling it on every connected device do the trick?

I'm not aware if disabling it on every device would do the trick. I created functionality that allowed users to delete their CloudKit data. My app that I'm working on uses CloudKit sharing, so to insure that everything is deleted I delete the custom zone from the user's private and shared database which should remove all of their records.
