Where Does Antidote Store Tox Profiles?

Antidote keeps Tox profiles in its iOS container, encrypted by profile password with no server copy.

Last updated

Antidote brings Tox to iOS with profiles stored inside the app container, encrypted by the password you set. There is no account server holding anything recoverable.

Losing both the device backup and the password ends the profile permanently. Export profiles from inside the app while access works and keep the password apart from the file.

Where Antidote stores this, by platform

iOS
/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/<guid>/Documents

Per install container path with encrypted .tox profiles. An encrypted device backup preserves them. Without backup or password the profile is unrecoverable.

Frequently asked questions

how do i move antidote to a new iphone

Restore from an encrypted device backup, or export the profile from the old install and import it with its password. Fresh installs without either start blank.

i forgot my antidote profile password

The profile cannot be opened or reset. Tox encryption has no recovery path, so only an unencrypted export made earlier helps.
