My sister just lost her iphone, and all the contacts on it as well. This is scary as she had no backup of them. I want to save my contacts in case this happens. How do i backup contacts on iphone?
That is really sad for your sister. But don’t worry, there are a lot many ways to create backups.
1. The easiest, of course, is the icloud option. It is also the safest and most efficient, and even more useful if you have other apple devices. Go to settings and find the icloud option. Go to the contacts option and turn the toggle button green. Now, your contacts are backed up on your icloud. But,for this you need space on your icloud, if you do not want to spend extra on icloud space, skip to the next method.
2. The next option is Gmail. You need a gmail account for this. Go to accounts from settings and add your account there. You will see a similar tab for contacts. Click to turn it on. Now, you can access contacts by signing in to gmail from any other computer or device.
