Although iCloud keeps being complained about its defects such as the slow speed, limited storage, and backup failure for no reason, there are still many people who are using it and many people who want to know how to use it. Since iCloud is also a means for wireless iPhone backup, I might as well explain the use of it in details.

1.       Go to “Settings” on your iPhone.

2.       Tap on your ID and tap on “iCloud”.

3.       Toggle on the applications you want to back up.

4.       Tap on “iCloud Backup” and in the opened panel, tap on “Back Up Now”.
