No. It's planned, and is likely to take quite some time. In the meantime, I recommend doing

periodic backups to avoid data loss.

If you have Flow 0.14.0 or later on iOS, iPadOS, or macOS, you can use iCloud. This required iCloud Drive sync to
87+
be enabled on your device. This feature does not support multiple devices syncing. Flow will attempt to save your
88+
manual backups to your iCloud Drive too.

This section is not specific to Flow.<br/><br />
180+
181+
TL;DR Flow saves to iCloud, and the operating system uploads the file. This process cannot be sped up, or altered.<br /><br />
182+
183+
Enabling iCloud sync on Flow will not immediately upload the data to iCloud. The operating system decides when it gets
184+
uploaded, and the decision is affected by many factors, including network connection, battery level, time of the day,
185+
and so on. This is not official Apple documentation, so you should refer to Apple's documentation for more accurate
186+
information.<br /><br />
187+
188+
Interestingly enough, you don't need an internet connection for Flow to save to iCloud.
