Fallout Shelter Save Editor

Fallout Shelter Save Editor is a free web app for viewing and changing Fallout Shelter save files. It works in the browser: files are decrypted, edited, and re-encrypted locally rather than uploaded to a server. The editor can change dwellers' SPECIAL stats, levels, happiness, health, equipment, and appearance, as well as revive dead dwellers. Vault tools cover caps, resources, food, water, power, Nuka-Cola, and lunchboxes. Users can rearrange, upgrade, theme, clear rocks from, and repair rooms. The app can show season reward tracks, including past seasons, and claim missed rewards. It also displays a vault family tree with relationship and genetics statistics, provides catalogs of weapons, outfits, pets, junk items, and recipes, and includes a save-health check to help repair corrupted files. It supports saves from PC, Android, iOS, and Switch. Before the first export, it automatically downloads a timestamped copy of the original file. The project states that it has no backend or telemetry and is an independent, non-commercial fan project for personal and educational use.

Fallout Shelter Save Editor is a browser app for inspecting and changing Fallout Shelter save files, suited to players who want detailed control over vaults and dwellers. Its standout advantage is broad editing with local file processing; it is not an official Bethesda product.

Overview

The app decrypts, edits, and re-encrypts saves in the browser, without uploading them to a server. The project says it has no backend or telemetry, and it automatically downloads a timestamped copy of the original file before the first export. That backup offers a recovery point, while local processing may appeal to players who do not want saves sent to a service.

It supports saves from PC, Android, iOS, and Switch, though the editor itself is web-based. This is an independent, non-commercial fan project provided free for personal and educational use. Its MIT license covers the original source code, and the project is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Bethesda, ZeniMax, or Microsoft.

Key features

Dweller editing covers SPECIAL stats, levels, happiness, health, equipment, appearance, and reviving dead dwellers. Vault controls reach caps, resources, food, water, power, Nuka-Cola, and lunchboxes. This range suits players seeking either a focused character adjustment or broader progression changes; anyone who only wants to view a save may find the editing emphasis unnecessary.

Room tools let users rearrange, upgrade, theme, clear rocks from, and repair rooms. Season-pass displays include full reward tracks for every season, including past seasons, and can claim missed rewards. The family-tree view adds relationship and genetics statistics the game does not show, while catalogs cover weapons, outfits, pets, junk items, and recipes. A save-health check can help repair corrupted saves. Together, these tools make the editor useful for both changing a vault and examining details beyond the game's own views.

Supported capabilities include inventory, progression, and character-stat editing, plus automatic backup. The project describes the app as client-only, but changing save data still means taking responsibility for edits to a game file.

Pricing

Free: free. The browser-based plan has no accounts, ads, or telemetry and is MIT open source. There are no paid tiers to weigh against its features; it is intended for personal and educational use.

Platforms

The editor runs on the web, with supported saves from PC (Windows), Android, iOS, and Switch. This distinguishes the platform used to edit from the platforms whose saves it can handle.

Who it's for

Choose it if you play Fallout Shelter and want granular control of dwellers, rooms, resources, or season rewards, or want to inspect family relationships and repair a save. Look elsewhere if you specifically need an officially affiliated tool.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Broad dweller, vault, room, and inventory controls make it useful for more than a single kind of save change.
• Pros: Local processing, no backend or telemetry, and an automatic original-file backup address privacy and recovery concerns.
• Pros: Past-season reward tracks, family-tree statistics, and a save-health check add inspection and repair tools beyond routine editing.
• Cons: It is a fan project, not affiliated with the game's publisher, which may rule it out for players seeking official software.
• Cons: The editor is web-based, so it is not a native Windows, Android, or iOS editor.
