How do you make sure your iPhone photos are backing up to iCloud?

At Signature Photo Organizing, we want to help as many people as we can. And we often to talk to clients who do not have their photos on their iPhones backing up to iCloud. Yikes. We want to help. So we made a quick little post that we can refer people to so they can make sure they get those photos backed up before that phone gets lost, falls in a lake or whatever. These photos are your legacy. Make sure there are copies of them for your family. It is very easy to do this. So watch below. We have got you covered! Note: Apple gives you free 5 GB of storage. You will most likely have to purchase ICloud + storage. As of writing this, it comes in 50GB, 200 GB, 2TB, 6TB or 12TB.

 

We made quick screen video on how to check if your phone is backing up to the Cloud. This is an iPhone 11 Pro with 17.3.1 OS. We hope it helps you.
