Where Does Nike Run Club Store Runs and Shoes?
Where Nike Run Club keeps runs and shoes on Android and iPhone, and what the account holds. Exact folders are covered below.
Last updated
Nike Run Club ties runs to your Nike account. Routes, shoes, and challenges sync on login. The phone caches maps and live tracking privately. That cache is invisible to file managers on stock devices.
Moves are login affairs. Same email, same trophies. Exact cache names vary by season release. Before races, download nothing special, just keep signal on after finishing so the run uploads. Screenshots of PRs help, since sync occasionally lags after long offline stretches in airplane mode. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
Where Nike Run Club stores this, by platform
/sdcard/Android/data/com.nike.plusgps
Runs follow your Nike account. Phone holds live tracking plus cache. Unsynced runs upload on signal. Export GPX for key races before wiping.
On My iPhone/Nike Run Club
Runs live in the Nike container plus cloud. Sign in to restore shoes. Phone reinstall never touches cloud runs or challenge history.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Nike runs to a new phone?
Sign in on the new phone with the same Nike login and runs return from the account. Unsynced runs stay in private storage until upload. Sync over WiFi first, then verify the feed before wiping. Export GPX for key races.
Does Nike Run Club back up runs automatically?
Yes, in the Nike account once synced. The phone holds live tracking plus shoe cache. Trophies rebuild after sign in. Reinstalls restore the same feed after login while dates stay covered. Sync each run day first.
