> Right now if you re-install Signal on your device, you lose all your messages. That's already a very bad user experience, but imagine how much worse it would be if you lost your entire address book in that moment as well.

Why not just allow users to load their data into the cloud with a pin or password? My friends that use Signal because I pressure them into it (remember, that's why a lot of people use Signal) just want a one click upload/download. Generally these are also iPhone users, which currently doesn't allow this. Why not just give a one-click option to sync into drive or iCloud? Make it optional too (for the privacy folk who are generating your userbase). Doesn't this solve the whole problem?
