iPhone users got a shock of 440 volts! All data will be deleted after this date, know the reason

Tech News Desk – If you are still using an iPhone, iPad or iPod running on iOS 8 or earlier, then there is big news for you. Actually, iCloud backup support for these devices will end on December 18, 2024. After this date, all backups saved in iCloud will be deleted and you won't be able to create new backups unless you update to iOS 9 or later. This change means that your apps, files, and settings will remain on your device, but the option to restore them through iCloud will disappear.

Very easy to update
To avoid losing your iCloud backup, Apple is urging users to take action. If your device supports iOS 9 or later, the easiest solution is to update your software. Compatible devices include iPhone 4S or newer, iPad 2 or newer, and iPod touch (5th generation or newer). Updating is simple: you can do it directly from your device's Settings or by connecting to a computer using iTunes or Finder.

You can use this trick
However, if your device can't run iOS 9, you still have options. You can manually back up your data to a computer using a USB cable and Finder using iTunes or macOS Catalina or later software on Windows or older Macs. These manual backups will keep your data safe even without iCloud. Apple also allows you to encrypt these backups with a password for added security. For some users, this change may seem troublesome, but somewhere with this the company is preparing to bring the users to the new software.

Less time left to switch
If you're keeping an old device, now is the time to replace it. Updating your software or creating a manual backup will keep your data safe. December 18th is just around the corner, so don't wait too long to make the switch. Save your important files and settings through an update or a manual backup.
