Hey everyone! I just realized I haven't backed up my iPhone SE in nearly two years and I'm concerned about what to do now. I've hit the 5GB limit on my iCloud storage for backups, and I'm considering deleting all my old backups. If I go ahead and delete them, will I lose any data from my phone? Or is it safe to proceed? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

It sounds like you're way over the limit for iCloud! But don't worry, deleting those existing backups won’t affect what's on your phone. Just keep in mind that if you have more than 5GB of data, you might still need to upgrade your iCloud storage to back everything up properly.
Honestly, shelling out a buck for more iCloud storage is probably worth it. Trying to manage with just 5GB will likely drive you crazy! Plus, it keeps everything hassle-free.
I refuse to pay for cloud storage! Just hook your iPhone up to a computer with iTunes and back it up there. It’s usually easier than dealing with iCloud, especially if you’re not a fan of paying for extra storage.
Why the aversion to cloud storage? It can be really convenient!
