If your iPhone on iOS 18 isn’t backing up to iCloud in Canada, it can be frustrating. Common causes include network issues, storage limits, or system glitches. Here’s a detailed step-by-step guide to fix it.


1. Check iCloud Storage

  • Go to Settings → [Your Name] → iCloud → Manage Storage.

  • Make sure you have enough free space for your backup.

  • If storage is low, either upgrade your iCloud plan or delete old backups and unnecessary data.


2. Verify Network Connection

  • iCloud backup requires a stable Wi-Fi connection.

  • Avoid using mobile data for backups.

  • Restart your Wi-Fi router and iPhone to refresh the connection.

  • Ensure Low Data Mode is turned off: Settings → Wi-Fi → [Your Network] → Low Data Mode → Off.


3. Enable iCloud Backup

  1. Go to Settings → [Your Name] → iCloud → iCloud Backup.

  2. Toggle iCloud Backup On if it isn’t enabled.

  3. Tap Back Up Now to initiate a manual backup.


4. Update iOS

  • Go to Settings → General → Software Update.

  • Install any available updates. iOS 18 updates often fix iCloud backup bugs.


5. Reset Network Settings (Optional)

If backups still fail:

  1. Go to Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Network Settings.

  2. Enter your passcode and confirm.
    ⚠️ This will remove saved Wi-Fi passwords and VPN settings, so reconnect afterward.

Always keep your iPhone plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi overnight for automatic iCloud backups. Regularly checking your iCloud storage prevents unexpected backup failures.
