Thus, the passphrase is 27 characters long, example: ``ABCDEF-GHIJKL-MNOPQR-STUVWX``. * Possible combinations are: 26^24 = 2^112.8 * The backup file is ASCII Armored and a special header is added: ``BackupVersion: 1`` * OpenKeychain detects the header and shows an improved UI for input of the Backup Code
