Note that if you are using the "Backup Now" option, you do not lock the phone for doing the backup.


For it to backup automatically while charging, either lock the screen with the right side button or do what I do and let it lock automatically based on the time you have chosen in Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock.
