Hey everyone!
Sadly, I’m forced to have an iPhone because of work. It’s a good device but I hate the philosophy behind it.
Right now I have a windows 10 vm to run iTunes and backup that phone.
It takes around 30gb on my Surface Go 1 with a 128gb ssd.
If I could use bottles or wine to backup my iPhone, it would save me some space and help me fully get rid of windows.
Sadly, last time I tried none of these worked. I think I managed to install iTunes, but then it crashed and sent me some weird messages.
So has anyone managed to backup an iPhone with these programs?
I use idevicebackup2 https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice
This is exactly what I use as well. It’s pretty awesome. Backup and restore work like a charm.
Oh I’m gonna take a look at that. Thanks!
Can’t you use iCloud? I haven’t used iTunes for 10 years to backup that thing.
I could but I don’t want to give any money to Apple 😇
If it’s a work phone, they should be paying for it, not you.
