    Hi,

    Can anyone tell me where the PlayerPrefs are stored on the Quest? It's an Android device and according to the Unity manual on Android they are stored in
    /data/data/pkg-name/shared_prefs/pkg-name.v2.playerprefs.xml

    But that folder does not exist on the Quest. I have Android/data/pkg-name/data but nothing like shared_prefs in there.

    I searched for *playerprefs.xml in the whole Quest internal storage folder but no matches and I am sure that my application is using playerprefs.

    Thanks!

    Just ran into this as well, and all I can find is your thread. Did you find an answer yet?

    While I can't give you an answer as to where the PlayerPrefs are stored on the Meta Quest internal storage, I have a useful piece of information to add here. I found this thread while trying to answer the question: do Meta Quest user accounts share the Unity PlayerPrefs?
    I tested this today and found that the PlayerPrefs are stored per user account on Meta Quest. They are not shared!
    So if User A downloads your game and plays it, then User B downloads and plays on their account on the same Quest, their game instances will use separate PlayerPrefs.
