Where Does Burner Store Numbers and Messages?
Burner keeps numbers and credits in its cloud account, with phones holding cache and settings only.
Last updated
Burner numbers live in the cloud account, not on the handset. Messages, call logs and remaining credits follow the login across devices.
The phone holds media cache and preferences in private storage. Expiring a number returns it to the pool permanently, which no local backup can undo.

Deleting the app does nothing to the number, but expiring or burning it inside the app releases it forever. Keep numbers active to keep them.
