Clearing the Assignment of the MAWi Link App
This guide explains how to clear the assignment of the MAWi Link app from a device, so it can be reassigned to a different MAWi Server.
There are two supported ways to clear the assignment of a MAWi Link device, depending on whether you still have access to the MAWi server.

Use this option if you still have access to the MAWi management console.

Go to Admin panel > Manage System.
-
Locate the relevant device.
-
Select Disconnect Device.
Result:
-
The device is unassigned on the server side.
-
The MAWi Link app will return to the initial pairing screen once it reconnects.
Option 2: Clear MAWi Link Data from the Android OS
Use this option if you do not have server access or if the device needs to be cleared locally.
-
Connect a mouse or remote control to the device.
-
Open Android Settings.
-
Go to Apps.
-
Locate and select MAWi app.
-
Select Clear Data (not just Clear Cache).
