Does Restore to Factory Settings wipe everything?
I'm planning to trade my old iPhone in to GameStop, but I still have a lot of Facebook, Twitter, etc.accounts logged in and don't know that if I log out that it will solve everything. I don't want to take the risk of any future owners being able to access my accounts, so if I restore to factory settings, does that completely wipe that information from my phone?
Yes. Use the Restore option in iTunes.
