  • Connect your iOS device to a PC or Mac.
  • Open iTunes.
  • On the top-left (to the left of My Music), click the icon that represents your iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod touch icon).
  • Under Backups, you will see the sub-head Manually Back Up and Restore.
  • Click Back Up Now to start backing up your iOS device.

If you don’t have access to a computer, then you can use iCloud Backup. Only 5GB is free and you’ll have to pay Rs. 60 per month for additional storage on iCloud.

  • To start backing up, on your iOS device, go to Settings > iCloud > Backup.
  • Turn on the switch marked iCloud Backup. You’ll get a warning telling you that your iPhone will not back up to your computer automatically. Tap Ok.
  • Once iCloud Backup is on, tap Back Up Now. This will start backing up your data to iCloud.
