Where Does Stingle Store Encrypted Photos on Android?
Where Stingle keeps its encrypted photo vault on Android, and how to move it safely to a new phone.
Last updated
Stingle keeps photos in an encrypted vault with settings in app private storage on Android. There is no account and no cloud; the exported vault file is the portable half.
Export through the app rather than digging in private storage. Originals stay encrypted at rest, which makes cloud copies safe while the password stays separate. Losing the password loses the vault regardless of copies, so record it offline.

Encrypted vault through in-app export; settings in private storage. No account exists. Export before uninstalling; password travels separately.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Stingle photos to a new phone?
Use the in-app backup to write an encrypted vault file, then move that file off the phone. The backup plus your password restores everything. Uninstalling wipes app storage without an export.
Is the Stingle backup safe in cloud storage?
The vault file holds encrypted photos while the password opens it. Either alone is useless to anyone holding it. Sync the file through any drive and keep the password apart from it.
