As you likely know by now, iOS and iPadOS device backups are handled differently in macOS Big Sur and MacOS Catalina compared to Mojave and earlier that ran iTunes. Instead of iTunes for device management, device syncing, backups, and restores are all handled in the Finder now instead.
We’ve already explained how to go about creating a backup of your iPhone or iPad using Finder, but what about restoring that iOS or iPadOS backup? The hope is that you’ll never need it, but here’s how you go about doing it if you’re using macOS 10.15 or later.
Does it seem like your iPhone or iPad’s battery performance has worsened after updating to iOS 14 or iPadOS 14?
If you have recently updated to the latest iOS or iPadOS version and you’re having battery related issues, you’re not alone, and it’s not uncommon to run into these situations when new system software updates are made available.
Some iPhone and iPad models have more RAM available than others, and fortunately iOS and iPadOS manages RAM exceptionally well, so even if you have a device with less RAM than a higher-end model or some Android phones, you shouldn’t find any issues with memory management in that regard.
