Where Does c:geo Store Offline Data?
c:geo keeps offline maps, logs and field notes in a cgeo folder on shared storage plus private app data. What lives where.
Last updated
c:geo splits data between shared storage and its private profile. Offline maps, logs, notes and spoilers live in a cgeo folder that file managers can open. Login sessions stay private.
That split decides every hunt. Missing map means the base folder setting. Missing login means the private profile, serviced through the app. Exact subfolders can shift between c:geo versions, so the settings screen wins over memory.
Where c:geo stores this, by platform
/storage/emulated/0/cgeo
Offline maps, logs, notes and spoilers below one shared root. Copy with c:geo quit. Login state stays private, so reauthenticate connectors after moving phones.
