I'm afraid that in your overreacting rush, you might have removed your app from European countries that are not within the European Union.

Though if you are collecting more data on your users than you need (why would you need personal data at all for this app?), you might have been doing them a favour anyway.

I think you're right that I've likely selected countries that I didn't need to, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.
GDPR will also apply in the EFTA countries (Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein), so you did right by doing Europe rather than EU at least
