Where Does Scanbot Store Scans on Android?
Where Scanbot keeps scans, filters and settings on Android for backup, embeds and full moves.
Last updated
Scanbot splits Android state two ways: scans in app private storage with exports in shared folders, and filters with settings beside them. Only exports survive reinstalls alone, so export before wiping.
Export documents for moves; private data dies with uninstalls. SDK based integrations embed the same engine with host app storage, so check the host app too. Filters rebuild fast and need no backup.

/data/data/io.scanbot.sdk.starter/files
Scans private with exports in shared folders. Package name can vary by demo versus store builds, so prefer in-app export over file browsing. Filters rebuild fast.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Scanbot to a new phone?
Export scans inside the app where offered, then copy those plus device backup off the phone. Documents travel as files, settings with backup. Reinstalls wipe unsaved scans.
Where are Scanbot filters stored?
Open Scanbot settings and read the storage entries. Filters save per scan while app options stay private. The entries always show the live values after updates.
