Backup Photos from iPhone

Backing up holiday photos on your iPhone is important to ensure that you don’t lose them in case of accidental damage to your phone. You can back up your iPhone through iCloud. However, you are only given 5GB of free storage. iCloud starts backing up only when your phone is connected to the internet. You may prefer backing up photos to your computer. There are various ways to do this.

You can back up your iPhone to a computer with iTunes. Download and install the latest iTunes on your PC. Plug in your phone to the computer and run iTunes. Click Device > Summary > Back Up Now. iTunes will start backing up your iPhone. To check your backup list, just click iTunes. Choose Preference and then click Devices. This process only allows you to back up your entire iPhone to Mac or PC, so you can’t choose specific types of data to back up such as messages, contacts, photos, messages and notes. You can’t view or read the content in backups directly on your PC.

If you don’t want to deal with such shortcomings, you can just use a backing up tool for iOS so that you can back up your iPhone to Mac or PC without using iTunes. AnyTrans can help you back up specific types of data such as your photos on your iPhone to your computer, another iOS device or iTunes.
