Many people don't realize that every drawing, recording, picture etc sent on Pair is actually sored on your device. Whilst you're unable to view the files within the Pair app, it is possible to retrieve them.

My setup:

----------

- Latest version of Pair from the Play Store

- Rooted android phone (I guess this should also work on iOS with a jailbroken device, but I'm unsure. This tutorial will be for Android devices)

- A computer

- adb.exe (found in Android sdk (sdk/platform-tools/adb.exe) )

1) Retrieve the files:

First, you need to copy the files. This will require a device with a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP.

In your directory with adb, execute this command

Linux:

adb push /data/data/com.tenthbit.android/files/ ./pair-files/

Windows:

adb.exe push /data/data/com.tenthbit.android/files/ ./pair-files/

This should extract all drawings/recordings/pictures into the /pair-files/ directory.

2) Rename files:

As you may have noticed, none of the files end with a file name. This can be fixed with little effort. First, download trid and the definitions from http://mark0.net/soft-trid-e.html and stick the TrIDDefs.TRD and exe in same directory. run the following command:

Linux:

trid -ae /directory/to/pair-files/

Windows:

trid.exe -ae /directory/to/pair-files/

This should rename .png files (drawings and images) correctly, but it incorrectly changed .mp4 files to .m4r. To fix this, download the following file and select the pair-files directory:

Run it, select the directory and press ok. a file called "report.txt" should list the changes made if that's something you want to see. All .m4r files will be renamed to .mp4 and YOU'RE DONE!
