To set up automatic back up for your iPhone and iPad, follow these directions:


Back up iPhone using iCloud

  1. Go to Settings  > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup.
  2. Turn on iCloud Backup.
  3. iCloud automatically backs up your iPhone daily when iPhone is connected to power, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi.
