Where Does Quicksy Store Accounts and Chats on Android?
Quicksy ties the XMPP account to your phone number, with chats in private app storage.
Last updated
Quicksy registers the XMPP account against your phone number, so the number is the identity. Chats, contact discovery matches, and OMEMO keys live in private app storage. Reinstalls on the same number re-register through SMS verification.
Moving phones means verifying the number again and resyncing archives from the server. OMEMO sessions restart with fresh verification. Keep the old device until the new one shows full history.
Where Quicksy stores this, by platform
Private app storage (account and keys)
Number linked account plus OMEMO state. Same number plus SMS code restores access. Archives resync; keys start new sessions.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Quicksy to a new number?
You cannot carry the account; numbers are identities. Register fresh on the new number and tell contacts. Export important chats first.
Does Quicksy backup chats?
Server archives resync after number verification. Local keys do not transfer. Verify OMEMO fingerprints again on the new install.
