iPhone insurance: specialist insurer warns users to back up their data before downloading new operating system

By the time you read this, the much talked about iOS 4.2 software update for iPhones and iPads could now be available. Rumours abound on various gadget websites and blogs that this exciting first major update to the iOS 4 operating system is due for release today, Monday 22 November, bringing lots of extra features to both your iPhone and  / or iPad.

According to the Apple iPhone website, with the new update you will be able to enjoy a Multitasking feature that (depending on your iPhone type as not all will be compatible with some elements of the update) allows you to run your favourite third-party apps and switch between them instantly (as long as the apps have been developed to work with iOS 4).

You’ll be able to tidy up and manage your mail a lot easier, with a unified inbox and the ability to organize messages by threads. And you can enjoy iBooks, an ebook reader where you will also be able to browse and shop for books. Plus lots more!

“It’s all exciting stuff and no doubt we’ll all be on iTunes downloading this update as soon as it happens” says Stephen Ebbett from iPhone insurance provider Protect your bubble. “However, before you do so, make sure that you have all your existing data backed up – just in case something goes wrong during the update” warns Ebbett.

“Most downloads will happen without a problem,” he says “but, something as simple as inadvertently stopping the download before it has finished or losing your internet connection, may affect your existing data. Taking a precautionary back up of your data beforehand could potentially save you a lot of hassle in the future as well as upset over any lost data”.

Free data back of up to 3GB is available with iPhone insurance from Protect your bubble, so if you have this insurance and you haven’t done so already, now may be the time to go online at www.protectyourbubble.com/gi-free-data-backup.html and make sure you’ve backed up your mobile phone.

And if you haven’t got iPhone insurance, now may be a good time to get covered. From only £5.99 a month, not only can you have the peace of mind that all your data is backed up, but that your phone is covered against theft, accidental damage, break down outside of the manufacturer’s warranty period, as well as loss cover for an extra £1 a month.
