Where Does Zeus Store Node Configs and Backups?
Where the Zeus wallet keeps node configs and backups on Android and iPhone, plus lnd roles. Full paths are listed below.
Last updated
Zeus is a remote Lightning wallet. Your node holds funds and channels. The phone holds connection profiles, contacts, and payment cache. Olympus LSP helps with inbound where enabled.
Same node plus imported backups means same balance. Exact profile names vary by lnd versus Core Lightning builds. Keep channel backups current before moves. If balance vanishes, check the node endpoint first. A second wallet with a similar name is the usual empty balance cause with self custody apps. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
Where Zeus Wallet stores this, by platform
/data/data/com.zeus.wallet (private profiles, funds on node)
Channels follow your node plus backup files. Phone holds connection profiles privately. Export backups before wiping. Re link endpoints on the new phone.
On My iPhone/Zeus (profiles container, funds on node)
Wallet lives in the Zeus container plus node. Sign in is import, not login. Reinstalls never touch node channels with valid backups.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Zeus to a new phone?
Export the wallet backup plus channel backup file from settings, then copy them to the new phone over USB or cloud. Nodes follow manual configs plus Olympus LSP where used. Reimport backups on the new device, then re link node endpoints before opening channels.
Is Zeus custodial?
No. Zeus controls your node over Lightning without taking custody. Channel states live on your node plus static backups. The phone holds connection profiles and payment cache. Reinstalls restore the same contacts after import while channels need their backup files.
