Where Does Twist Store Sessions and Settings?
Twist Electron sessions, cache and settings per desktop OS.
Last updated
Twist runs on Electron, so workspaces cache messages locally in per-OS app-data folders while history stays server-side. Clearing cache logs out nothing.
Cache wipes fix most Twist weirdness. Threads and decisions reload from the server afterward.
Where Twist stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\Twist
Session storage, cache and settings inside; exact subfolders can vary with Electron updates, so copy the whole tree for migration. Message history itself lives server-side.
~/Library/Application Support/Twist
Same Electron layout as Windows. Clear cache here when the app shows stale threads.
~/.config/Twist
Config-tree sessions and cache. Snap builds redirect under ~/snap instead.
Frequently asked questions
Will clearing Twist cache delete messages?
No. History lives on Twist servers. Local folders above hold disposable cache and sessions.
How do I migrate Twist to a new machine?
Just log in fresh. The folders above carry no irreplaceable data.
