Where Does v2rayNG Store Servers and Settings?
v2rayNG keeps servers and subscriptions in app-private storage with in-app backup, wiped on uninstall.
Last updated
v2rayNG stores servers, subscriptions, and routing in its private app data, which Android deletes on uninstall. There is no config file to copy by hand. Migration runs through the app's own backup and restore functions or through subscription links.
The practical rule: your subscription link is the real backup. Re-adding it on a new phone reproduces the whole node list identically. Export a configuration backup from inside the app before switching release channels or ABIs, since that switch forces an uninstall first.
Where v2rayNG stores this, by platform
In-app storage (servers); backup file wherever saved
Use the About page backup and restore functions before reinstalls or channel switches. Uninstalling wipes everything including subscriptions. v2rayNG can also import subscription backup files exported from desktop v2rayN.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move v2rayNG to a new phone?
Easiest is re-adding the same subscription link on the new device and updating once. The node list comes back identical. For full settings, export a backup from inside the old app first and restore it on the new one.
Will updating v2rayNG delete my servers?
Normal updates keep everything. Uninstalling, including the mandatory uninstall when switching CPU or release channels, wipes app data. Export a backup from inside the app before any uninstall, and keep subscription links saved separately.
