Where Does Gadgetbridge Store Data on Android?

Where Gadgetbridge keeps device pairings, activity data and settings on Android for moves.

Last updated

Gadgetbridge keeps device pairings, activity recordings and settings in app private storage on Android: a SQLite database with everything the companion watches track. There is no account and no cloud.

Export database and activity files for moves; private data dies with uninstalls. Re-pairing watches on the new phone needs physical access regardless of copies. Back up before ROM flashes and app reinstalls.

Pairings and activity in a private database with no account sync. Export in-app for moves. Re-pair watches physically on new phones.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Gadgetbridge to a new phone?

Copy the app data with device backup, then verify devices on the new phone. Pairings travel in the database while settings sit beside it. Reinstalls without a backup wipe both.

Where are Gadgetbridge activity exports?

Open Gadgetbridge settings and read the database location. Activity exports to GPX and CSV through the app where offered. The entries always show the live paths after updates.
