Where your data lives

Every preset, folder, snapshot, statistic, and calibration lives inside the app's own sandbox container on your Mac. App Store updates replace the app and leave the container alone, so nothing you set up is lost by an update. Nothing is ever sent anywhere.

The exact location

Settings, General, Reveal Data Folder opens it in the Finder. The path is ~/Library/Containers/com.inputconfig.app/Data/Library/Application Support/InputConfig/.

What is where

presets/*.json: every preset, one file each. These are the same files Export writes and Import reads.
versions/<presetID>/*.json: automatic snapshots of each preset, the last ten saves, used by the Revert button on the preset's page.
groups.json: folder names, colours, and order.
stats.json: lifetime statistics.
motionCalibration.json: the resting zero for each controller's gyro and accelerometer.
The preferences file: touchpad calibration and regions, the tip jar count, one-time flags.

Backup and restore

Settings, General, Export Backup writes every preset, folder, and stored preference into one JSON file. Restore from Backup reads one back. That file is also the easiest way to move to a new Mac: export on the old one, install the app on the new one, restore.

Uninstalling

Drag the app to the Trash. The container stays in your Library until you remove it, so a reinstall picks up exactly where you left off. For a truly fresh start, delete the container folder too.

Questions

Does iCloud sync my presets?

No. The app makes no network connections at all. Use Export Backup and copy the file yourself, or keep the presets folder in a synced location by hand.

Can I edit the preset files directly?

Yes, they are plain JSON. Quit the app first so it does not overwrite your change, and keep a copy in case a typo makes the file unreadable.
