Signal launches local encrypted chat backups on iPhone
Original: Punto Informatico: Signal, arrivano i backup locali su iPhone: come salvare le chat Signal lancia su iPhone i backup loc
Signal has rolled out local backups for iPhone, allowing users to save their conversations and files directly on the device. Chats are stored in an encrypted folder protected by a recovery key, so only the owner can access the data. The feature aligns the iOS app more closely with privacy-focused expectations users have long associated with the messaging platform.
Why now: Signal users on iPhone have long lacked a local backup option, making this a notable privacy feature update.
