What's new in v6.0.9

Dear users, On OCT 8, 2018, Google decided to update their policies related to SMS & Call Log permissions. Sadly, this decision impact our iShredder apps and we are forced to remove WIPE SMS & WIPE CALL LOG. As a solution, you can manually wipe the data and run a freespace wipe afterwards. We feel really sorry and we would appreciate if you could refrain from posting bad reviews related to this problem. What you can do is tell Google that their decision is affecting your user experience.
