To be honest, it is not so easy to do backups of iOS devices without the cloud

[–] Nogami@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Connect to your computer and click backup when iTunes pops up if you’re running windows. To be honest it’s very easy.

Everything but automatic. And non automatic backups might as well not exist.

?

You can have an iPhone automatically backup to a computer. It can either do it automatically when it’s plugged in to the computer, or you can turn WiFi backups on, and it will automatically back up when it’s connected to a charger.

The backup experience isn’t too different than what has been happening with iPods for over two decades.

Don’t rain on the haters little circlejerk. They’re in Apple enthusiast but they’re clearly not. Need better moderation here.

[–] simplejack@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Yeah, this community often gets brigaded by iOS and MacOS haters that come over from c/all.

It’s kind of annoying when half of the comments on big threads are from people who are obviously very unfamiliar with the software and products we’re talking about.

Really? It works over WiFi? Well then I take back my previous comment. I thought it works only when plugged in to the pc.
