Where are my files located?

While you should use the built-in backup and restore functionality for backup and transfer of data to new device (since v6.0.0), you might still be interested where the files are located in the Android system.

If you plan to transfer the files outside the phone, I strongly recommend using some 3rd party archiving app, to create an archive of all the files on the phone, as the Android’s USB transfer is known to corrupt files.

RaceChrono v4.5.0 and newer

RaceChrono:
– internal storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.app/files/ (sessions, tracks, exported files)
– internal storage: /DCIM/RaceChrono/ (raw videos)
– external storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.app/files/ (raw videos, exported files)

RaceChrono Pro:
– internal storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.pro/files/ (sessions, tracks, exported files)
– internal storage: /DCIM/RaceChrono/ (raw videos)
– external storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.pro/files/ (raw videos, exported files)

Notice: The /Android/data/com.racechrono.app (RaceChrono) and /Android/data/com.racechrono.pro (RaceChrono Pro) folders are deleted upon app’s uninstall. So if you uninstall, all your sessions and tracks (and raw videos on external storage) will be deleted. This has changed due to 3rd party cleanup apps, and even Samsung’s own apps, are known to delete the /RaceChrono/ folder on unprotected space that was used by prior versions.

RaceChrono v4.4.0 and older

RaceChrono:
– internal storage: /RaceChrono/ (sessions and tracks)
– internal storage: /DCIM/RaceChrono/ (raw videos)
– internal storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.app/files/ (exported files)
– external storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.app/files/ (exported files, raw videos)

RaceChrono Pro:
– internal storage: /RaceChrono/ (sessions and tracks)
– internal storage: /DCIM/RaceChrono/ (raw videos)
– internal storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.pro/files/ (exported files)
– external storage: /Android/data/com.racechrono.pro/files/ (exported files, raw videos)

Notice, if you ever need to uninstall RaceChrono the folder under /Android/data/com.racechrono.* is deleted upon app uninstall. Makes sense at least backup the RAW videos on external storage for Pro version. The /RaceChrono/ folder is not deleted but it makes sense to backup it frequently.
