"There's also a $1.99 per month option that can back up all of your text messages, in addition to up to 100GB of media beyond the 45-day cap. Signal first launched secure backups on Android devices in September, which store your messages and media using end-to-end encryption. You can access your backup using a 64-character recovery key generated on your device, though Signal notes that it can't help you recover the code if you lose it."
"To enable secure backups, head to the Settings menu and select Backups. From there, tap Setup > Enable Backups and then write down or store your recovery key. Once you confirm your recovery key, you can choose between the free or paid plan. Signal will then begin storing your messages and media. You can store your messages for free, but you'll need to pay $1.99 per month if you want to save more than 45 days' worth of media."
Signal launched secure backups on iOS, enabling users to save and restore messages when replacing or losing a phone. The free tier stores up to 100MB of text messages and the past 45 days of photos, videos, GIFs, and files. A $1.99-per-month subscription backs up all text messages and adds up to 100GB of media beyond the 45-day cap. Backups use end-to-end encryption and are protected by a 64-character recovery key generated on-device; Signal cannot recover the key if it is lost. To enable backups, go to Settings > Backups, set up and confirm the recovery key, then choose a plan.
