The Mews Connector application runs locally and not in the cloud. It allows Mews Operations to connect with local devices, such as printers and key encoders, so that you can directly send commands from Mews to your devices. DeviceHubs is the page in Mews Operations where you create and Mews maintains your Mews Connector integration setup(s) in the cloud.
If you need to uninstall the Mews Connector application you can follow the procedure in this help article. It is also important to keep your DeviceHubs page clean by deleting old set ups. You can do this by deleting the Mews Connector set up from the Marketplace in Mews Operations.
