A backup is a snapshot of the current state of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. When you back up your device, your data is safe.

With a backup, you can:

• Restore your device to the state it was in when that backup was made.
• Transfer your data to a new device.
• View the backup’s content (in iMazing).

iTunes only keeps one current backup per device. Every time you back up your device, your last backup is overwritten, potentially resulting in data loss.

iMazing archives your backups automatically, a unique solution that is comparable to a Time Machine for your device. Disk usage is optimized so that you can easily keep dozens of backups.
