That was certainly the way it was done in the past, but with over-the-air updating available for several years, I haven't synched to my computer in many months. I now use the App Store as my app backup. If I delete an app and want it back, I can merely download it from the App Store again.I33t said:The normal method is to delete and reload it from your computer. Do you sync your phone with your computer?
Coming from an Apple software engineer background, I agree that more backups are better, but iTunes offers the choice of either backing up to iCloud or to one's computer, not both. To create two backups, I would have to continue backing up automatically to iCloud as I do now and then manually backup to my computer periodically. Last time I checked, incremental backups were not performed to one's computer, so each backup is a full backup which can easily exceed 1 GB in size. With my "tiny" 128 GB SSD, I just don't have the free space for frequent iPhone backups to my computer.I33t said:Coming from an IT background, all I can offer is: "Two backups are better than one"
Not hard at all. Even if I had sufficient SSD free space, I would need to plug in my laptop overnight while my iPhone and iPad are being backed up to my laptop. I don't want to repeatedly fully charge my laptop, iPhone, and iPad. In hopes of maximizing the lives of my 6 year old laptop battery and those in my iPhone and iPad, I try to keep their charge levels between 20% and 80% just as I do with my i3.I33t said:I plug my phone into the computer last thing before bed. Backup is automatic and the phone is charged, backed up and ready to go by morning. How hard is that...
