NSuserdefaults Location

I cant find location of nsuserdefaults for my app. In same question solution was /users/your user name/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator//Applications. But i have no in iPhone Simulatar dir.

Solution

  • You can do this

    Search for documents directory path 

    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; // Get documents folder
NSLog(@"documentsDirectory=%@",documentsDirectory);

    That will come as 

       /Users/user/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/270568AE-FB4B-4C57-8819-4D99324D0689/data/Containers/Data/Application/C614A497-971F-4686-9162-3A614AB2C702/Documents

    now go upto 

     /Users/user/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/270568AE-FB4B-4C57-8819-4D99324D0689/data/Containers/Data/Application/C614A497-971F-4686-9162-3A614AB2C702

    Then

    /Library/Preferences/....plist

    .plist file stores NSUserdefaults content under Root .
