[Story] EX: UX Redesign of Settings > Encryption #2590

Open mxandreas opened 2 days ago

mxandreas commented 2 days ago

Description

The UX of setting up a recovery (key) and turning OFF/ON the server-side key storage has been revisited with the main purpose is to allow the end users to make a much better sense of it.

The designs have been revisited cross-platform, both EW and EX, and it is desired that the implementation of those are not too far apart; this story only applies to EX as the starting point for EW and EX is different. EW needs to do structural changes to Settings while EX only needs to change the copy and minor visual aspects.

The scope is the Settings > Encryption (currently Chat backup) menu which has 3 scenarios from user perspective:

The sub-menu End-to-End Encryption with the functions to Export / Import Keys and Reset end-to-end encryption is currently not in scope.
