Where Does Nextcloud News App Store Feeds?
Nextcloud News Android client cache with feeds on the Nextcloud server.
Last updated
The Nextcloud News Android app mirrors subscriptions, folders, read states and starred items from the Nextcloud News server app, caching article bodies per device for offline. The server holds the durable subscriptions and syncs with desktop clients too.
OPML moves at the server level, not in the app: import and export through the News server settings. Phone reinstalls restore follows on login while article cache refetches. Multiple servers stay separate per account entry.
Where Nextcloud News stores this, by platform
App-private storage (article cache; subscriptions on Nextcloud server)
Per feed offline caching with background sync. Read states push to the server and merge with desktop. Clearing app data drops cache; follows return on sign in.

do Nextcloud News read states sync to desktop
Yes through the server: read, starred and folder moves propagate to web and other clients. Offline reads flush on the next sync with connectivity.
