iCloud backup using cellular

-RV- wrote:

as I stated, where I am located is off the grid, there is no WiFi, but I have unlimited data over cellular with LTE speeds. I use cellular data for everything I do over the internet, why would Apple restrict the backups to only WiFi? If this is truly the case I’ll have to switch to non Apple products. Please advise

What part of "sorry WIFI is needed to back up to icloud" wasn't understandable? I read you live off the grid.

If there was an alternative, I clearly would've stated it in my original response.

If you want Apple documentation then read here What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support

yes report me for giving you cold hard facts..

How are you going to mark your own answer as solving your issue.

IF you read the link I provided it outlines what is needed to back up to icloud and it did say connect to cellular data.

I'm done best of luck to you trying to back up via cell data.

Fixed for razmee209 -- Connect your device to a Wi-Fi network.
