Back up iPhone

You can use iCloud or iTunes to automatically back up iPhone. If you choose to back up using
iCloud, you can’t also use iTunes to automatically back up to your computer, but you can use
iTunes to manually back up to your computer. iCloud backs up to iPhone daily over Wi-Fi, when
it’s connected to a power source and is locked. The date and time of the last backup is listed at
the bottom of the Backup screen.

iCloud backs up your:

Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books

Photos and videos taken with iPhone (if you use iCloud Photo Library beta, your photos and
videos are already stored in iCloud, so they won’t also be part of an iCloud backup)

iPhone settings

App data

Home screen, folders, and app layout

Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)

Ringtones

Note: Purchased content is not backed up in all areas.

Turn on iCloud backups. Go to Settings > iCloud, then sign in with your Apple ID and password
if required. Go to Backup, then turn on iCloud Backup. To turn on backups in iTunes on your
computer, go to File > Devices > Back Up.
