Are decrypted messages/assets stored in plaintext in the local device cache, or subject to local device backups? Can the local device cache be manually flushed, made subject to OS-level data protection policy, or eliminated entirely?

-Messages stored locally use the device encryption/OS-level protection

-Not included in backups

-Can be deleted either manually (per message/per chat) or altogether by uninstalling
