iPhone backup
Hi Experts,
I need to backup my iPhone to replace it, which I never done before, and I am wondering how? Especially considering that I have 1 iCloud account for both my iPhone and iPad?
Additionally, will the backup include everything including files, pictures, apps and settings?
Finally, if there a way to check what have been backed up?
Thank you

Right, as mentioned, it backs up camera roll but not other photos.

so, how do I backup all?
You could separately copy the other photos to your pc in Windows explorer.
i use dropbox - free acct to automatically upload my pics -
then i pull them down into whatever PC i want later on
and depending on PC or Mac you have a few options
but you can se up the iPhone as a removable drive/device on the PC within iTunes
Ithe device will show up under ......my computer..... try browsing around to access the pictures.
You may need to turn the option to display hidden files.

Since you have same Apple ID for your iPhone and iPad, I suggest that you should back up your device with iTunes. Because Apple offers you every user 5 GB free storage space, you may need to upgrade your storage plan if your backup exceed 5GB.
