Where Does Gemini Mobile Store Chats?
Where the Gemini mobile app keeps chats on Android and iPhone, while history lives in cloud. Exact folders are covered below.
Last updated
Gemini mobile is chat cloud with a native shell. Your threads, gems, and files live in the Google account with history toggles. Each phone holds login, preferences, and cached previews.
Same Google ID means same chats where history is enabled. Turning history off keeps prompts local only. Exact cache names shift with releases. If chats vanish, check the Google account first. A work versus personal ID split is the usual empty history cause, plus history paused in settings. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later.
Where Gemini Mobile stores this, by platform
/sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.bard
Chats follow your Google login where history is on. Phone holds thread cache plus working copy. Gems live in cloud. Match the Google ID exactly.
On My iPhone/Gemini
Threads live in the Gemini container plus cloud. Sign in to restore gems. Phone reinstall never touches cloud chats when history is enabled.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Gemini chats to a new phone?
Sign in on the new phone with the same Google login and chats return from the cloud where history is on. Phone holds login and thread cache only. Gems read from account. Check the account before wiping, since a second Google ID shows empty.
Does clearing Gemini cache delete my chats?
No. Gemini streams threads from your Google account. The mobile wrapper caches covers and login. Deleting cache logs out at worst but never deletes a chat when history is enabled. Reopen from the sidebar after clearing.
