Where Does Hammerhead Store Routes and Data?

Hammerhead Karoo routes and Companion app files on Android and iPhone, plus dashboard sync.

Last updated

Hammerhead Karoo head units sync through the Companion app to your Hammerhead account and dashboard. Routes built on the web push to the head unit through the phone. The app copy is a window, not the archive.

Android files sit under the Companion package in scoped storage. iOS uses the app container. Confirm the package in App info when browsing, since companion branding has shifted over releases.

Where Hammerhead stores this, by platform

Android
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/[hammerhead-package]/files

Check App info for the installed package label before digging. Routes synced from the dashboard appear here transiently before moving to the head unit.

iOS
/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/<guid>/Documents

Pairing a second phone without unpairing forks route libraries. Sign in and sync, then verify on the dashboard before wiping the old device.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the full Hammerhead history?

Sync the Karoo with the Companion app on internet, then confirm on the Hammerhead dashboard. Routes and workouts live there. Phone files only stage the transfer.

How do I move Hammerhead data to a new phone?

Install the Companion app on the new phone, sign in and pair the Karoo. Routes, profiles and records download from your account. Unpairing the old phone first avoids split libraries.
