Can I use my phone while backing up to cloud?

I need to know if I can continue to use my phone while it is backing up to the cloud. I have 3 hours to go and need my phone!!

First, move your phone as close as possible to the Wi-Fi router and try that first for awhile.


You can use the phone while it is backing up, but it will likely slow the backup process down even more.
