1. Open the Settings app.
2. Tap on your name at the top.
3. Go to iCloud.
4. Tap on iCloud Backup.
5. Select Back Up This iPhone.
6. If your phone doesn't immediately begin a backup, press Back Up Now to manually start the process.

Although it's an easy process, it isn't uncommon for iPhone users to neglect backing up their data to iCloud, which could result in losing everything.

Thankfully, after completing these steps, your iPhone will automatically back up to iCloud daily when charging, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. Most of the time, this happens overnight, meaning you won't even have to do anything to ensure all of your iPhone data remains safe.
