Yes, deleted an app due to worries about how it handled personal data.

Answer

I deleted Facebook years ago due to all the creepy tracking and data collection they do. Recently removed TikTok as well after learning about the extent of data it collects. I try to stick to apps from reputable companies that are transparent about privacy and limit data collection to only what's needed for core functionality. It's concerning how many apps these days are basically spyware.
