We are getting Cloud Backups in the future! Currently, there are two tiers planned:
The free tier offers:
- 30 days of media backup
- ??? GB of storage
The paid ($3 / mo) tier offers:
- media & text backup forever
- 1TB of storage Both tiers’ features and the pricing of the paid plan are still subject to change
What do you think about this?

First of all: there will definitely be a free tier. The only thing not final is storage and media backup.
Second: local backup will most likely still be an option.
Why do people always hate on new features? Just don’t use them if you don’t want to
My bad… It wasn’t supposed to sound that aggressive.
And to be honest: there is no confirmation for a free tier but I strongly believe (and hope) so because most people nowadays assume everything to be free and if they see Signal not having a free backup plan everyone would go
aAhHhHHHhH they are so greedy i thought they are a non-profit.
(I mean people who don’t care about privacy and only use signal because their privay-aware friends told them to)
