Backup and encryption
Anuma automatically backs up your conversations and memories with client-side AES-GCM encryption. Your data is encrypted on your device before it ever touches a server — only you hold the keys.
How backup works
Anuma runs automatic cloud backups in the background. Your conversations, memories, and media are encrypted on your device using AES-GCM encryption, then securely synced to the cloud for cross-device access and disaster recovery.
What gets backed up
- All conversations and chat history
- Memory Vault contents
- Media files (images, audio, video) — up to 50GB on Pro plan
- Personality settings and preferences
Encryption
- Client-side encryption — Your data is encrypted on your device before upload
- AES-GCM standard — Industry-standard authenticated encryption
- Key derivation — Encryption keys are derived from your secure identity
- Zero-knowledge — Anuma servers cannot read your encrypted data
Steps
Step 1: Open Backup settings
Go to Settings > Backup to view your backup status.
Step 2: Check backup status
The panel shows your last backup time, storage usage, and sync status.
Step 3: Manual backup (optional)
Tap Backup Now to trigger a manual backup if you want to ensure your latest data is synced.

Restoring from backup
If you lose your device or switch phones, sign in on a new device. Your encrypted backup restores automatically — your conversations, memories, and settings come back exactly as you left them, without exposing your data to anyone.
