For Appfigurate Simulator, we rely upon you and your Mac's security to secure your app metadata records. The database that stores your app metadata records is not encrypted and is located in the host macOS filesystem:
~/Library/Application Support/Appfigurate/
This allows us to share your app metadata records across all iOS Simulators where Appfigurate is installed.
For Appfigurate Emulator, we rely upon you and your Mac or Windows PC's security to secure your app metadata records. The database that stores your app metadata records is not encrypted and is located in the Android Emulator's file system:
/data/data/nz.co.electricbolt.appfigurate/
The AppfigurateSE app can be used to the iOS shared database stored in the host macOS filesystem (see above) to and from the Android Emulator. For Windows PC's the database that stores your app metadata records is not encrypted and is located in the host Windows filesystem:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Appfigurate\
For device builds (installed from the or ), the database that stores your app metadata records is encrypted on device.
When pre-packaging the local database that stores your app metadata records into the Appfigurate iOS or Android physical device build, the database is stored unencrypted in the resulting ipa or apk file. We recommend using wrong app metadata records for development in this scenario.
Exported app metadata is secured using the following:
Passphrase derivation function uses 11-rounds of bcrypt.
App metadata blob is encrypted with AES256.
