- bilal4hmed 3y agoI would accept that too, but I should be able to take my messages with me anywhere I go
- proaralyst 3y agoThey have exactly that: you can set up a periodic encrypted backup under settings > chats. It'll occasionally ask you for your backup password so you don't forget it too
- orhmeh09 3y agoNot seeing this on iOS.

It'll occasionally ask you for your backup password so you don't forget it too Last I checked, that was Android only. And the password they periodically ask for is your PIN, which is unrelated to your backup password.
