In this guide, you will learn how to back up your iPhone to iCloud using the Cellular Internet. This is super useful if you don’t always have Wi-Fi but still want your iPhone to back up automatically.
Back up iPhone over Cellular data
You can enable this feature from the Settings app by following a few easy steps. Here’s what you need to do.
- Launch the Settings app and tap on the Cellular option. In some regions, this option is also labeled as Mobile Data. If you have that, then tap on it.
- On the next page, scroll down until you find the iCloud Backup toggle.
- Turn this toggle on to have your iPhone backed up to iCloud over cellular data when Wi-Fi is not connected.
Before turning on this toggle, do keep in mind that this will increase your cellular data usage, which is subject to carrier charges. If you have a limited data plan with your carrier, then avoid using this feature and backup your device on Wi-Fi only instead.
That’s it, this is how you can make your iPhone backup on iCloud using cellular data.
