backup iphone to cloud
It’s a good habit to backup your iPhone on a regular basis in case any damage or data loss on device. As you know, Apple offers two backup options: backup with iCloud based on online cloud service, or with iTunes on computer. If you tend to wirelessly backup your iPhone 7/7 Plus, iPhone 8/8 Plus, or iPhone X, instead of creating a backup on computer, then iCloud could meet your needs. Before starting, let us take a brief look at iCloud.

Apple allows you to backup your iPhone to iCloud manually or automatically, and we will show you how to make an iCloud backup for your iPhone separately in below. Step 1. Connect your iPhone to a Wi-Fi network. Step 2. Turn on iCloud Backup and tap “Back Up Now” to start backing up iPhone to iCloud. During the process, keep your device connected to Wi-Fi until the whole process ends. Note: As for the backup time, it largely depends on your Wi-Fi network speed and the data size to be backed up. Manage Storage, then select iPhone you backed up.

If the backup succeeded, the backup icon will appear with the time and backup size. In above, we talked about how to manually backup iPhone to iCloud. 2. Connect your iPhone to a Wi-Fi. 3. Connect your iPhone to a power source. 4. Lock iPhone screen. As we showed above, it’s easy and free to backup iPhone7/8/8 Plus/X with iCloud. Cloud can backup most of your iPhone data including messages, device settings, app data, etc. But it’s important to know some cons of iCloud backup.

Some users complained large files were transferred slowly when backing up. What’s worse, some reported 5 GB of free storage was not enough for much iOS data, and they have to pay for larger storage. Now you are clear about some pros & cons of iCloud backup and you can decide whether backup your iPhone to iCloud or not.

Backup and tap Backup Now to start a fresh backup. If your iPad or iPhone won’t backup to iCloud again, move to the next fix. If you don’t have any problem with your internet and you have enough storage in your iCloud, and still iCloud backup is not available, you can try resetting your iPhone settings. To do this, go to the settings menu on your iPhone and go to the general option. Tap on Reset all settings. After selecting this option, proceed it and wait for its completion.

It will hopefully fix the problems with your iCloud backup. If the problem with your iCloud backup still exists, try restoring your iPhone. You can do this using your iTunes on a computer. To do this, attach your iPhone to a computer and make sure that your system has the latest version of iTunes. After this, select the iPhone button and backup all of your data. After restoring your device, check your iCloud backup option and it will hopefully work properly.

While it looks about the same, the search capability is far superior. You can enter a few keys on the keypad and it will pull up results that match either the letters or the numbers, even in the middle of the name or company. To replace the dialer, go into Settings / Applications / Manage Applications, find "Contacts" app, and clear its defaults.

Next time you start contacts, you'll be prompted for the actual app to use. There are apps that will analyze your call log to determine how are you actually using your phone, when do you make the calls, to whom, and so on. There are even apps that will let you backup the call logs and SMS messages to the cloud. Finally, there are various SMS app alternatives, such as Handcent SMS, GoSMS, and more. There are even apps that will let you send SMS through data connection, thus not using your SMS quota.

The default camera is rather primitive. It takes pictures, but that is about it. If you want some special effects, such as combining it with other pictures, add a composition grid on the preview, improve the digital zoom, and so on. Camera 360 is one such app. It has simulated HDR, LOMO, simulated Tilt-Shift, as well as "scenery" mode where your picture is merged into existing pictures.

There are also Ghost Mode where you can add ghosts and apparitions to pictures. Color Shift mode gives you ability to have only one item being in color, and the rest in gray-scale. Other cameras claim to have fast operations, such as burst mode (takes multiple pictures quickly), more effects such as simulating older film cameras of various vintages, and much more. To load a Camera app, just install it.
