Why is my backup taking so long... anyone know?

Hey everyone! So, I’ve been trying to back up my iPhone to iCloud and it feels like it’s been running for ages. I swear, it’s been like 6 hours and still nothing. My Wi-Fi is fine, so IDK what’s going on. Anyone have tips on how to speed this up?

Ugh, I totally feel you! My iCloud backups can drag on too. I found that switching Wi-Fi networks helped a bit. You might wanna try that?

My backups have been super slow too! Deleting some large apps helped me out. I realized I had a ton of stuff I didn’t even use anymore.

Have you tried restarting your phone? I’ve read that sometimes a quick restart can speed things up.

If you’re on public Wi-Fi, that could be a big reason for the slow backup. Switching to a private connection might do the trick.

IDK about you guys, but I found that backing up overnight works better for me. That way, I don’t stress about the time it takes.
