Where Does Jumble Store Nostr Keys and Feeds?

Jumble keeps Nostr keys in private app storage, with relays and follows synced from your key.

Last updated

Jumble stores your Nostr private key in the app's private storage, since the key is the account with no server holding a copy. Relays and follows rebuild from the network once the key loads.

Losing the key loses the identity everywhere, not just on one phone. Export the nsec string from settings while access works and store it like a password.

Private storage with the key vault. Package names vary by fork, so confirm on the Play Store listing first. The nsec export matters more than any file backup.

Only until the key reloads. Follows and relays resync from the network once the same nsec is imported. Without the key they are gone.
