Getting a save file for Fallout Shelter depends on what you're exactly looking for. If you want to start from where someone else left off, you might find shared save files online, but be cautious of potential malware. For backing up or transferring your own game, on iOS, use iTunes or iCloud. On Android, you can find save files in the 'com.bethsoft.falloutshelter' folder located in your device's 'Android/data' directory. Just copy them to a safe location. For PC, save files are usually in the 'My Games' folder inside 'Documents'. Always make backups before tampering with game files!

Honestly, just play the game. The fun in Fallout Shelter is building your vault from scratch. Finding a save file online takes away all the thrill. Plus, you avoid the risk of downloading something sketchy.

Transferring saves? Easy peasy. If you're on PC, just dive into the 'Documents/My Games/Fallout Shelter' folder. If you're trying to mess with phone saves, make sure you know what you're doing or you might end up with a glorified digital paperweight.
