In today’s lives, it has become impossible to live without a smartphone and our smartphones are full of important information. Even a thought of losing the data makes us worried. Prevent that disastrous scenario of losing any of your information by regularly backing up your phone.
It is always safe to have more than one copy of your data, and backup is about keeping all important data safe along with keeping copies of all the information that you may need some time in future. Your smartphone is closely tied to your personal identity than your computer is. So, back it up regularly and save yourself from all possible threats. Let's understand different methods for users to backup mobile phone data.
Backing up an iOS device to safeguard your data is easy. If you find an issue with your device, you can restore the contents from your backup. There are three major ways to back up iOS devices. One is directly from the device using Apple’s iCloud; the second is direct to your computer using iTunes, and the third one is a hybrid approach of both options.
Apple offers 5 GB of free storage on iCloud but don't worry you can upgrade to additional amounts by paying a fee.
To enable iCloud backup, Go to the Settings app -> iCloud -> Backup. Sign into iCloud with your Apple ID and then Tap Backup Now to begin the backing up process.
When your device is within a Wi-Fi network and connected to USB, subsequent backups are automatically performed. You can even manually start taking backup by tapping Backup Now. iCloud is an amazing solution for users who don’t regularly connect their device to their computer. It requires a Wi-Fi connection and USB power to back up your data automatically. iCloud offers a complete backup, so the user's data is safe in every way.
