backing up after iPhone disaster
is there a way to back up an iPhone to iCloud or computer AFTER phone is damaged and screen doesn't work?
iPhone 13 Pro
Hello~ No…that’s why backing up should be done often and before damage occurs.

Thought perhaps since phone is still powering up that there might be a magic way to transfer data from device to device without being able to operate the damaged phone. Sometimes believing in magic is a good thing. But, Lesson learned.
Hello again ~ I am sorry and believing in magic is okay with me :)
