You can either manually or automatically back up all your data on iCloud in case your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch gets lost or is damaged you have the data safe somewhere else. Although iCloud will not backup any purchased apps, music, books or movies, once you restore from iCloud backup, it will download them from Apple store, iBook store and iTunes.

These are the steps to back up your iPhone using iCloud:

Step 5: Once the backup process is complete, go to your iPhone Settings click on your Name then iCloud. Then click on iCloud storage and tap on Manage storage. When you click on your device, you will see the details of your last backup. For iOS 12 and earlier users go to your iPhone Settings click on iCloud then click on Storage and lastly, click on Manage storage.
You can also automatically backup with iCloud with the following steps:
