Until now, if you lost or broke your phone, your Signal message history was *gone,* a real challenge for everyone whose most important conversations happen in Signal. So, with careful design and development, weโre rolling out opt-in secure backups.
signal.org/blog/introducing-โฆ
Secure backups will let you save an archive of your Signal messages remotely in privacy-preserving form, refreshed every day.
Now available in the latest Android beta release, rolling out to iOS and Desktop in the near future.
Will the backup server be open source and self host able? I will pay more for this feature.
