Temple Run 2 – Save Data Editing Guide (iOS)

Hello everyone,

I’m excited to share my latest exploration with you. In this guide, I will walk you through the process of modifying the save data of Temple Run 2 on iOS. By editing the game's save file (gamedata.txt), you can modify various in-game values and potentially unlock most content.

This method works for both jailbroken and non-jailbroken devices. The only difference is how you access the game files.

This guide is intended for educational and research purposes only.

========================
Requirements
========================

• iOS device
• Decrypted Temple Run 2 IPA
• Valid P12 certificate (for sideloading)
• A sideloading tool such as ESign / Feather
• Files app on iOS
• Temple Run 2 Save Editor

Decrypted IPA Download:

Save Editor:

========================
Method 1 – Non-Jailbroken Devices
========================

Step 1 – Download the IPA

Download the decrypted Temple Run 2 IPA from the link above.

Step 2 – Enable Document Browsing

When signing the IPA using ESign, Feather, or a similar sideloading tool, make sure that "Document Browsing" is enabled.

This allows the game files to appear inside the iOS Files app.

Step 3 – Sign and Install

Use your P12 certificate to sign the IPA with Document Browsing enabled.

Install the signed IPA onto your device.

Step 4 – Launch the Game Once

Open Temple Run 2 once after installation.

This will generate the required save files.

After launching it once, you can close the game.

Step 5 – Access the Save File

Open the Files app.

You should see a folder named:

Temple Run 2

Open it and locate the file:

gamedata.txt

Copy or extract this file.

Step 6 – Edit the Save File

Upload gamedata.txt to the Temple Run 2 Save Editor:

https://tr2saveditor.netlify.app

By default the editor opens in "Inspection Mode" to prevent accidental changes.

Enable "Experimental Mode" to allow editing.

You can modify various values such as:

• Coins
• Gems
• Characters
• Upgrades
• Unlockables

After editing, download the modified gamedata.txt file.

Step 7 – Replace the Save File

Return to the Temple Run 2 folder inside the Files app.

Delete the original gamedata.txt and replace it with the modified version you downloaded.

Step 8 – Launch the Game

Open Temple Run 2 again.

Your modified save data should now be applied.

========================
Method 2 – Jailbroken Devices
========================

If your device is jailbroken, the process is easier since you can directly access the app files.

Step 1 – Install the Game

Download Temple Run 2 directly from the App Store.

Step 2 – Locate the Save File

Using Filza, navigate to the game directory.

Inside the Documents folder you will find:

gamedata.txt

Step 3 – Edit the File

Extract gamedata.txt and upload it to the save editor:

https://tr2saveditor.netlify.app

Modify the values you want and download the edited file.

Step 4 – Replace the File

Replace the original gamedata.txt with the modified version.

Step 5 – Launch the Game

Open Temple Run 2 and the edited save data should now be loaded.

========================
Final Notes
========================

• Always keep a backup of the original save file.
• Extreme value changes may corrupt the save.
• This works because Temple Run 2 stores important progress data locally.

Enjoy)))) I might need to update this soon though because what I realised is about artefacts there are some issues about cloud-sync. Also new updates arrived so I am not sure what has changed so far. I need to update it.
