Purge Data
While having all of your information in the app and on the web is convenient, this can impact performance if there is a lot of data. You may want to remove old and unused Locations, Tags, or Notes but they are currently associated with an Item.
You are able to Purge the old data from your account by using the Purge Data Function.
Note: this data will not be readily accessible in the future so run any needed reports for your records. Support can assist with reloading the created backup to your account if needed.
Data Backup Menu: TripLog App > Main Menu ( ≡ three line icon ) > Your Plan (Click on the Email) > Data Backup > Data Purge > Purge Old Data
Purge Data Menu

When you select Purge Data it will create a backup of the items then remove them from your device.
Repeat for additional years to Purge
At this point you can do a Push To Web Sync to replace all data on the web with the Smaller Data Set on your phone.
TripLog App > Main Menu ( ≡ three line icon ) > Your Plan (email) > Data Backup > Sync Data between Device and Cloud > Push Data
**This will remove all data on the Web Dashboard and replace it with the data from your phone.
If you ever need to restore this data you will be able to access it through the historical data restore in the app.
