Can you schedule when backups occur?

Can I schedule when I want backups to occur? It seems it is trying all the time and I’m not even sure I’ve had a successful backup yet. Thank you!

You schedule it by connecting to wifi, p[lug to a power source, lock the device and leave it alone to backup to the cloud. See more info in the blue link under related article.
