Was the data cached locally in your app?

That's still storing the data. Nothing says that the user typically lets this sort of information stay on their phone.

That's nice, but I'm not here to argue for one viewpoint or another, I'm just trying to explore the complaint that originated this thread.

Difference being you're still in full control of that data, can delete it at any time, and Airbnb the company doesn't have direct access to it.

If this was an Android phone, Android remembers credentials at the OS level now. It'll prefill app forms.
