Thank you for the detailed description of the issues users are facing with the lack of backup and transfer options for message history. While this is clearly an important problem that needs to be addressed, the current issue description is too broad in scope for our AI assistant Sweep to implement a solution.
To make this issue actionable for Sweep, please break it down into smaller, more specific feature requests or bug reports. For example, you could open a separate issue requesting an "Export Chat History" feature with details on how it should be implemented (ex: allow downloading message history as a JSON file). The overall backup and device syncing functionality should be split into multiple targeted issues that provide clear implementation steps.
This will allow Sweep to tackle the problem piece by piece in a way that aligns with its current capabilities. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Users are encountering significant challenges due to the absence of backup and transfer options for message history between devices. They report an inability to copy or transfer message histories from one device to another, such as from an iPad to an iPhone. This limitation is particularly problematic when users need to reset their devices or replace them due to damage, as they are unable to retrieve previous conversations, unlike other messaging apps like WhatsApp and Telegram which support such functionalities. Additionally, users have experienced instances where chats have disappeared without any means to recover them, leading to a loss of trust in the service. The lack of an export feature for chats further exacerbates the issue, as users cannot save or transfer their conversations manually. This gap in functionality is causing frustration and inconvenience, highlighting a critical need for robust backup and transfer solutions to ensure message histories are preserved and accessible across devices.
