Where Does Teamfight Tactics Store Data on Mobile?
Little Legends, rank and cosmetics belong to your Riot account. The mobile app keeps patches, board assets and login tokens.
Last updated
Teamfight Tactics on mobile shares its account system with the PC client, which makes it one of the friendlier games to move around. Cosmetics, ranked placement and pass progress live on Riot servers under your Riot account. The phone app stores the current patch, board and Little Legend assets, voice lines and login tokens, files that rebuild themselves the first time you launch after installing. A long-lived install can reach several gigabytes of these assets.
One thing worth checking before a device switch: that the app is signed in to the Riot account you actually play on, and not a fresh guest profile left over from a past reinstall or a region mismatch. The collection follows the login, never the install. Sign in first, pick the right region, and everything from your PC ladder shows up on the small screen as expected.
Where Teamfight Tactics stores this, by platform
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.riotgames.league.teamfighttactics
Patch data, board and Little Legend assets, plus sign-in state. Hidden from file managers on Android 11 and later. Clearing it logs you out and re-fetches everything on next launch.
/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/<guid>/Documents
Per-install container whose GUID changes with each reinstall, jailbreak needed to browse it. Full backups copy it, but signing in is what restores ranks and cosmetics.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get my TFT setup onto a new phone?
Install the game and sign in with the same Riot account and region you use on PC. Ranked placement, cosmetics, Little Legends and pass progress all return from the servers. There is nothing to copy between devices manually.
Why does my mobile rank differ from what I see on PC?
It should not, since both clients share one Riot account. If the numbers disagree, the mobile app is usually signed into a different account or region. Check the account and region shown at login and sign into the correct pair.
Can I clear TFT's local files to free up space?
Yes, with a linked account. Patches and cosmetic assets re-download automatically, so the cost is a slow first launch rather than lost progress. Use Wi-Fi for the rebuild and keep a few gigabytes free for the download.
