Where Does Habitica Store Data?
Habitica keeps everything in server MongoDB with JSON and CSV exports from settings. No meaningful local files exist.
Last updated
Habitica is cloud storage with game graphics. Tasks, history and messages live in server databases with browser and apps as windows. Offline creation fails by design with sync as the only bridge.
Exports carry the archive. Full JSON plus history CSV and inbox HTML leave through documented routes on a schedule users must keep. Mobile sandboxes hold cache unworthy of backup guides.
Where Habitica stores this, by platform
/data/data/com.habitrpg.android.habitica
Private sandbox for the verified package holding cache with no backup-worthy files. History exports through website JSON and CSV routes. Offline creation unsupported by design.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Habitica?
Use the website settings data-export routes for full JSON, history CSV and inbox HTML. Older history compresses by averaging with completed todos auto-deleting, so export regularly. XML routes stay broken.
Does Habitica work offline?
It rejects offline creation historically, saving through web requests after success. Mobile apps need connectivity with local storage as cache only. Sync across devices is cloud sync, nothing else.
Where is the Habitica Android data folder?
The documented package names a sandbox holding cache with no backup-worthy files. Self-host clones run dev Mongo instances unrelated to user data. Quote the export routes instead of any folder.
