Where Does Nova Video Player Store Shares on Android?
Where Nova Video Player keeps shares, posters and settings on Android for backup and moves.
Last updated
Nova Video Player splits Android state two ways: shares, posters and settings in app private storage, video files on disks, servers or shared folders. Scoped storage hides the private half from file browsers.
Re-adding shares on a new phone is normal; exports speed up settings only. Poster cache regrows from sources, so skip it in small backups. Reinstalls wipe private data, so export before removing the app.

Frequently asked questions
How do I move Nova Video Player to a new phone?
Export settings inside the app where offered, then copy the export off the phone. Shares need re-adding on the new phone regardless. Posters rebuild from sources on demand.
Where are my Nova network shares saved?
Open Settings inside Nova and read the storage entries. Network shares save as connection entries while local videos stay in shared folders. The entries always show the live paths.
