Q: Changing iPhone, backup and icloud
Hi to all,i will soon change my iPhone, and i want to backup only some content like messages and photos, no applications or settings, to put them in the new phone. Also i don't understand very well some option in icloud in my phone.
1. What is the different between the Safari option in iCloud and the other one situated in icloud drive? Also what content the other application downloaded from the store synchronize in icloud drive if the option is enabled? This is something i never understand
2. To backup my photos and my messages to put them in the new iphone, i have to do a complete backup using iTunes or icloud, or there is a way to backup only the 2 things? Or eventually do a complete backup and then restore only photos and messages, but i don't know if there is an option to do that. For the photos i'm thinking on activate ''icloud photo library'' and then re-download them on my new iphone, but for messages?
3. Now i have ios 9.3.1 on my iPhone 5, i will unable to restore the backup if the new iphone has ios 9.3.2?
Thank you very much!
Matteo
iPhone 5, iOS 9.3.1
