+This command removes everything related to an app which is already undeployed.
+
+By default, it will prompt for confirmation before proceeding. All secrets,
+volumes and the local app env file will be deleted.
+
+Only run this command when you are sure you want to completely remove the app
+and all associated app data. This is a destructive action, Be Careful!
+
+If you would like to delete specific volumes or secrets, please use removal
+sub-commands under "app volume" and "app secret" instead.
+
+Please note, if you delete the local app env file without removing volumes and
+secrets first, Abra will *not* be able to help you remove them afterwards.
+
+To delete everything without prompt, use the "--force/-f" or the "--no-input/n"
+flag.
