Spatial Anchors - how to view/delete in profile/privacy
I am saving Spatial Anchors to my cloud profile. I am storing their UUIDs separately and trying to remember to clean them up. But I'm worried sometimes I am losing the UUID and accidentally leaving a...
Ok - just over 24 hours later. For my un-shared anchor stored both locally and in the cloud... the cloud anchor worked all day today until the 24 hours was up and then stopped loading. The local anchor was available all day and did NOT stop loading after 24 hours.
So - regardless of whether you share it or not, if you store it in the cloud its only valid for 24 hours. If you store it locally its only available to you, but it persists until you delete it (assumedly... time will confirm that hypothesis), clear the app data, or delete the app.
I had this same concern. I read in some new documentation - (specifically for SHARED spatial anchors - which must be stored in the cloud) - that the shared spatial anchors are good for 24 hours, after which they get deleted. I don't know if that applies to non-shared anchors stored in the cloud. Like you (apparently), I have scoured the documentation for how to get a list of saved UUIDs so you can delete them, and I have found absolutely nothing. Maybe tonight's hobby project will be to create a non-shared anchor in the cloud and see if it's still there 24 hours later.
