Currently working on an app that requires the fetch the accounts synced in my android device. Can anyone help with which internal file stores the different accounts synced with the device. Also will the passwords of the accounts be stored somewhere? If so, where the pwds are stored?
 
I believe account info can be anywhere, depending on the app. Passwords will typically be in one of two places:
  1. on-device, defined by SystemSecureDirectory() location
  2. off-device, with only a locally stored token
It's also possible that an app uses the KeychainAPI (see /data/data/com.android.keychain).
