Yes but only iCloud backups can happen automatically and wirelessly every night. For local backups you need to attach the phone to your laptop using your usb cable and click "back up" in iTunes manually every time.
- woobar 9y agoThis is not true. Wi-Fi Sync (that includes iTunes backup) is available since iOS 5[1]. It works automatically if phone is plugged in and computer used for back is online.
