> You already had secure and encrypted backups on your phone, which you could copy and restore, if you remembered to copy them, and write down a very long password. Did I? Where? on iOS I don't. Edit: there is a transfer to a new phone thing, but that only works if the old phone still works. Which makes it not a backup (it's a transfer).
