Where Does Renta! Store Rentals and Purchases?
Renta! manga rentals, purchases and points on the account with app cache.
Last updated
Renta! (PAPYLESS) splits manga access three ways: timed rentals, owned purchases and points, all tracked on the account. The apps cache current reads in private storage for offline with the usual licensed limits.
Rentals expire on their timers and owned volumes redownload indefinitely. Points buy either and persist across devices. The account page is the ledger; the phone holds travel copies that expire, clear or transfer never.
Where Renta! stores this, by platform
App-private storage (current reads cached in-app; ledger on account)
Rentals run their timers server side. Owned volumes fetch again any time. Clearing app data drops the cache; points, rentals and purchases restore on login.
App sandbox (current reads cached in-app; ledger on account)
Same rental and ownership model on iPhone and iPad. Deleting the app clears cached reads while the account keeps every entitlement. Web reader mirrors the shelf.

do Renta! rentals stay readable forever
No. Rentals expire on their countdown and stop opening even cached. Owned purchases have no timer. Check each title page for which regime applies before spending points.
how do I restore Renta! books on a new phone
Sign into the same account: points, rentals and owned volumes list for fresh download. Old cached files never transfer; fetch current reads again on Wi-Fi.
