Where Does the FreeNow App Store Data?

FreeNow keeps rides in private storage under the legacy mytaxi package ID on both phones, with trips synced from servers.

Last updated

Taxi app FreeNow kept its mytaxi package through the Lyft rebrand. Private storage holds the login session plus the ride cache under the legacy taxi string. That local store covers session state and cached ride details. It does not hold the trip history itself.

Trips live server side and return after login on a new phone. iOS App Store ID is 357852748 with an unverified bundle, so quote the numeric ID for support. A fresh login restores rides and receipts after reinstall. The local data holds session and map cache only.
