Where Does FolderSync Store Folder Pairs?
FolderSync keeps folder-pair definitions and sync history locally with accounts per cloud service. Export pairs before switching phones.
Last updated
FolderSync mirrors folders across clouds from local definitions. Folder pairs with direction, filters, schedules, and account links persist in private app storage. Sync history logs each run.
That makes the pairs export the migration unit. Exact folder names may vary by version. Re-login every cloud account on new phones; tokens never transfer. Filters skip cache folders. Sync conflicts keep both copies. Notifications confirm nightly runs. Versioning guards overwrites. Root mode reaches protected dirs.

Frequently asked questions
How do I move FolderSync pairs to a new phone?
Open settings and export folder pairs to a file, then import it on the new phone. Cloud accounts need re-login per service. Test one pair before enabling schedules.
Can Tasker trigger FolderSync?
Yes with Tasker intents firing syncs on triggers like charging or WiFi. Schedules run natively otherwise. Battery optimization exemptions keep background syncs alive.
