Where Does Siskin Store Accounts and Chats?
Siskin keeps XMPP accounts and OMEMO keys in app storage backed by the iOS keychain, with no cloud copy.
Last updated
Siskin stores XMPP accounts, OMEMO keys, and message archives in the app's private storage, with secrets in the iOS keychain. No iCloud account mirrors any of it.
Device backups are the whole migration story. An encrypted backup carries the app data across; unencrypted ones can drop keychain items and strand the history. There is no web login, which is the privacy point and the backup risk in one.
Where Siskin stores this, by platform
App-private database + iOS keychain (no cloud copy)
Accounts, keys, and archives live here, invisible to Files. Migrate through encrypted device backups; unencrypted backups can drop keychain secrets.
Frequently asked questions
Do my chats survive a new iPhone?
Accounts, contacts, and history return with an encrypted device backup. Anything never backed up dies with the phone, since no server holds your identity.
