How to make a backup of your iPhone?
Our smartphones are an integral part of our lives. It is therefore necessary to take care of them, and to ensure that no unforeseen event compromises all the data they contain. Debugging and repairing your iPhone is often synonymous with resetting and losing data. It is for this reason that regularly backing up your iPhone is a reflex to adopt. But how to do it exactly? We guide you step by step in our tutorial.

As often in iOS, there are two ways to do it. The first relies entirely on iCloud, and can be done entirely on the iPhone. The second, more complete but also restrictive, must be carried out on iTunes from a Mac or a PC.

Backing up your iPhone regularly is the best way to ensure that a breakdown or loss of your phone is the least harmful to you. The backup is also useful when you change your iPhone to a newer model for example. You will then be able to find all your data and applications exactly as you left them on your previous device.

If you want to access data from a backup of your iPhone, it may be relevant to use third-party software that offers you the possibility of making backups much more flexible than those of iTunes. This is the case of the Dr.Fone software, which in addition to making backups whose data will be accessible from the software, will allow you to make software repairs on your smartphone without any loss of data.
