How do you decide which user settings to keep and which to remove?

by•

We built dozens of custom options in our app over the years thinking users wanted full control. But after looking at the data over 80% of users never changed a single preference.



It made me realize that good default setups matter way more than giving people endless buttons and toggles to tweak.



When you notice a feature setting is rarely used, do you just leave it there or actively remove it to keep things clean?

I did remove it if its rarely used and adds confusion but I’d check user feedback first before removing it completely Good defaults are usually better than too many settings
