iOS Nosy Poll: How often do you Restore your iOS Devices ? - cbelt3 - 04-27-2016

Mrs. cbelt3's struggles with her iPad Mini were resolved with a hard backup / restore. Do others of you do this periodically as a maintenance task ?

Backup and restore are two very different things. I backup regularly but have only had to "restore" once that I can remember in the last couple of years.

Haven't needed a back-up, yet.

Back-ups have become inconsistent so I voted quarterly.
2 or 3 a month and then skipping a few months or so is quarterly ( by average) right ? :-)

I haven't yet had to restore them.

Mini 2 - never
iPad 3 - once
iPad 3 #2 - never
iPhone 4 - once
iPhone 5 - never
iPhone 5S - never
iPhone - once I think, it's been a real long time
iPhone #2 - once, jailbroken & running whited00r

Yes, every one is still in use though #2 at the end gets very little use.

Still running two iPad 2s -- never, and I don't believe our stable of iPhones have ever been restored either.

There's a button missing from your poll: Never. That would be my choice.

I've never restored an iOS device

I did a Restore once; I don't remember why.
