How Backup iPhone

A cloud-based backup solution for storing and protecting your iPhone should be easy to use and affordable.

I asked my AI Buddy Chatsonic again about how to backup my iPhone effectively, trying to compare the services available today and here's how he answered:

Based on the search results provided, here's what I know about backing up an iPhone:

There are two main methods to back up an iPhone:

iCloud Backup
Local backup using a computer (via iTunes or Finder)

iCloud Backup

It's wireless and automatic
Requires a Wi-Fi connection and sufficient iCloud storage space
Can be set up by going to Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup
Backs up automatically when the device is connected to power, locked, and on Wi-Fi
You can also manually initiate a backup by tapping "Back Up Now"

Local backup using a computer:

For macOS Catalina or later, use Finder
For macOS Mojave or earlier and Windows, use iTunes
Connect your iPhone to the computer via USB
Select your device in Finder/iTunes and click "Back Up Now"
Offers the option to encrypt the backup for added security

What gets backed up:

Purchase history for iTunes, App Store, and iBooks
Photos and videos
Device settings
App data
Home screen and app organization
iMessage, SMS, and MMS messages
Ringtones

Third-party options:

Cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive can also be used to back up certain types of data

Before backing up:

Check available storage (either on iCloud or your computer)
Ensure a stable Wi-Fi connection for iCloud backups
Make sure your Apple ID account is in good standing

Restoring from a backup:

Can be done during device setup or later through Settings
Choose the appropriate backup source (iCloud or computer)
Remember to regularly back up your iPhone to prevent data loss and ensure easy recovery if needed.

Then i asked him to create a comparison table Google Drive vs. Dropbox vs. OnrDrive to get an idea what's the best option for me:

This table provides a general comparison of the three cloud storage services.

Keep in mind that features and pricing may change over time, so it's always a good idea to check the official websites for the most up-to-date information.
