Man I love iOS backup. My iPhone recently fukked up after I dropped it in the shower. Screen cracked and water leaked into the jawn. Thankfully I still was within my warranty so Apple replaced the phone for only $300 for a brand new 256 GB iPhone X.
But that was just the beginning. After feeling so happy I dodged a bullet on having to pay full price for a brand new iPhone I then proceeded to try and restore the phone. I was scared I didn't have iCloud backup activated so initially I was terrified I might have lost all my data. I'm in the music industry so I have tons of recordings of private shows, concerts, etc. I also do alot of photography so I was terrified is lost everything.
Thankfully iOS ICloud was active.
But the backup process is fukking seamless. My phone was backed up to literally 2 hours to the period when my old phone went dead.
Simply restored old iPhone backup and had all my texts, videos, apps, and passwords, and even my phone WiFi and settings back to normal.
For people doing serious business, not using an iPhone is playing yourself. Feels awesome knowing my phone can be replaced so easily is something bad were to happen with my phone. Had this been an Android, the restoration process would have been a completely miserable experience, not even going to mention actually fixing/replacing the phone itself.
And T-Mobile is a fukking useless company btw. I went to them first and those fakkits essentially went . When I went to them. Absolutely no help. And their 15.99/mo insurance is an absolute ripoff. fukk them and their CEO.
In short, iOS is the truth. No offense to my Android peeps, but the security you have with iOS is second to none.
