iCloud backup on iOS 11 was pretty quick, it used to take a couple of minutes. Now since I updated my phone to iOS 12 back when it was released it takes much longer for iCloud backup to complete. My iPad doesn’t seem to be affected....it is quick like it was on iOS 11.
The slowest part on my phone is at the beginning right after starting the backup and it says “estimated time remaining”. On the iPad it gives me a time remaining within a minute but on my phone it takes upwards of 5-10 minutes of just hanging there waiting to give an estimated time remaining. When it does give a time remaining it usually states around 30 minutes or so, and after a minute or so it starts counting down rather quickly and finishes in another minute or so after that. So once it gives me a time remaining it’s not too bad, but just getting through that initial waiting period to get an estimated time remaining seems to be where the hang up is happening.
Anyone have any ideas of what’s causing this delay on just my phone?
