CTOnews.com, September 9 (Xinhua)-- with the release of iOS 15 last year, Apple added a new benefit for users who buy a new iPhone or iPad. When users purchase a new iPhone (including the new iPhone 14 series) or iPad, they get a temporary upgrade to the iCloud storage space to back up the old iPhone. This simplifies the process of setting up the new iPhone 14 series.

Users can follow these steps to create a temporary backup of the current iPhone:

Go to Settings and select General

Scroll down and find the transfer or restore iPhone option

Click "start now"

If you see "iCloud backup is closed", click Open backup to transfer

If the user does not have enough iCloud storage space, he will see a message stating that the new phone user is eligible for free additional iCloud storage space. Click continue.

IPhone will then begin the process of backing up to iCloud, regardless of how much iCloud storage space the user previously had.

Apple said that before the temporary iCloud storage expires and the backup is permanently deleted, users will have a few days to restore the temporary backup to the new iPhone or iPad. The company also pointed out that if the iPhone 14 series phones do not arrive within 21 days (users' temporary backups can be restored within 21 days before deletion), users can find the "make my backups last longer" option under the Settings app.

CTOnews.com learned that after restoring the temporary backup to the new device, Apple said the temporary backup would be retained for seven days and then permanently deleted.

Of course, a better way to solve this problem is for Apple to increase its free iCloud storage. Apple still only offers free iCloud storage for the 5GB, the same as the free iCloud storage that Steve Jobs first announced in 2011.

To get more iCloud storage space, users must upgrade to iCloud + subscriptions. In the United States, the iCloud+ price of 50GB storage space starts at 99 cents a month. The price of 200GB is $2.99 per month, and the price of 2TB is $9.99.

CTOnews.com learned that at its recent Far Out launch, Apple released the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus, retaining most of the iPhone 13 design-including bangs grooves for mobile selfie cameras and Face ID sensors. Apple also introduced the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, equipped with "Smart Island" pill screens to display alerts and background activities, brighter displays and AOD message screens, A16 bionic chips, new color options, and more. The iPhone 14 / Pro series is available for pre-sale.

"the delivery time of Apple iPhone14 Pro / Pro Max has been postponed to the end of October after the official website was oversold."
