Where Does Onion Browser Store Bookmarks?

Onion Browser keeps bookmarks and per-site security settings locally on iOS with Tor circuits rebuilding per launch. No account exists by design.

Last updated

Onion Browser routes iOS traffic through Tor from local storage only. Bookmarks with onion addresses, per-site security sliders, and bridge lines persist per install. Circuits rebuild fresh every launch.

That makes the install disposable by design: export nothing, re-add manually. Exact behaviors may vary by version. New Identity wipes the session state instantly; use it generously on shared networks. Security slider trades features fast. Onion addresses need exact spelling. Bridges configure per network.

Bookmarks per install with no account sync. Exact folder names may vary by version. Screenshot onions before moves.

Frequently asked questions

Do bookmarks transfer to a new iPhone?

No. Bookmarks stay per install without accounts by design. Screenshot important onions before switching phones and re-add them manually. Bridge settings need reconfiguring too.

How do I configure bridges?

Open the bridge settings and enter the provided lines before connecting. Censored networks need bridges; open ones connect directly. Keep bridges fresh; dead ones stall bootstrapping.
