How do I disable automatic iPhone backups during sync in macOS Sequoia?

my iPhone is 1TB with about 750GB full, only the backup takes about 20 min and I don't need to backup anything from the iPhone. my data lives on my computer, on my iPhone I do not have anything that needs to be backup.

the point stays the same, I do not use iCloud services, I do not want to make the Backup on my computer everytime that I sync my iPhone. it was possible in the past and Apple disabled that option, or ...

for more than 25 year Apple fan and continuing hopefully for longer years, but give my data to a 3rd party ... no for sure not! it is not a money thing is a principle easy, what is my data, stays private

Hi Old Toad

I sync only music, about 700GB, because I use the ID3 Tags information for my database. additional have a small folder with photos also sync, with a couple (about 20) wallpapers for the iPhone, customize by me.

I do the same as you, click a couple of times on the skip button, but it is annoying.

also the backup i do on the computer, as you say, i do it sporadicly about 1x every 3 months or even longer, for the same reasons as you say.

In the past was possible to configure the skip, and disable it. it looks that now we have to continue clicking skip!
