"I’m attempting to uninstall my old Homey (early 2016), but I can’t locate any options to accomplish this. I’ve already searched the community, and while there are some explanations, none of them seem to be effective. It’s possible that these methods are no longer valid due to recent app updates.

I’d rather handle this on my own without reaching out to support. Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated."

You mean a factory reset? [https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360024602314-Resetting-Homey-Pro-to-factory-defaults](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360024602314-Resetting-Homey-Pro-to-factory-defaults)

Can you define ‘uninstall’ please? Doesn’t Homey disappear from your app after the factory reset?
