Sadly not Linux tho.
- eigenspace 1y agoIf you sync an iPhone to a Linux machine, you can then save your backups on Linux.
- Nextgrid 1y ago"libimobiledevice" has CLI tools that can backup/restore iOS devices on Linux.
- gojomo 1y agoDo such backups retain Signal message history - unlike Apple's native local backups to MacOS?
- Nextgrid 1y agoThis uses the same protocol as macOS, so same outcome. However (not sure if it helps in this case), keep in mind that different data is retained depending on whether the backup is encrypted or not (the tool supports encrypted backups too). So maybe check with encryption enabled and see if it carries over Signal messages?
- gojomo 1y agoIt doesn't. Signal opts its data out of even encrypted local iPhone backups.
