Signal brings official chat backups to iOS

Original: Der bekannte # Messenger @ signalapp hat bereits im vergangenen Jahr damit begonnen, # Backups für die eigenen # Chat -I

Signal began rolling out backups for chat content last year, covering text and voice messages, photos, videos and documents. Official backup support reached the iOS app in November 2025, extending a feature Android users already had. The news is being shared among German-speaking tech followers, with users welcoming the ability to keep their message history when switching or resetting devices.

Why now: The iOS rollout of long-awaited official Signal backups is new and useful to users concerned about losing chat history.
