Hello guys. Welcome to Tenorshare channel. iPhone is vulnerable especially when it
gets dropped from a height, and the screen gets broken. In such cases, we would think
about backing up important data from iPhone. While the broken screen becomes unresponsive,
there is no way to enter your device’s passcode to unlock and backup when connecting to computer,
because your iPhone will ask you to trust the computer
and the screen just won’t response no matter how you tap it. Well, this is a tricky issue.
But no worries, in this video I will introduce several solutions to get you out of the trouble.
I will use my iPhone 12 as an example, just regard it as a broken screen iPhone and follow the steps.
The first thing to do is to unlock your iPhone and make it trust your computer. Here are the steps.
If you have set Touch ID or Face ID on your iPhone, try using them to unlock your device.
Make sure you don’t restart your iPhone or let the battery die. Because after a restart,
Touch ID and Face ID won’t be an option. You will be required to enter your password again.
It would be easy if you have plugged your phone into your computer before.
But if you haven’t, you need to tap on a single button to confirm that you trust
that computer. In order to do that, You can ask Siri to enable VoiceOver. VoiceOver can
read the contents for you and navigate your iPhone with the help of an external keyboard.
Then connect your lightning to USB adapter to your phone and plug your USB keyboard into it. Next,
ask Siri to open bluetooth settings, if bluetooth is turned off, ask Siri to turn bluetooth on.
Use the left and right cursor key on the USB keyboard to move between objects, press control,
option and space key at the same time to confirm. Using this way,
you can pair the bluetooth keyboard by listening to voiceover’s audio prompts.
Once connected to the bluetooth keyboard, unplug the USB keyboard and connect your iPhone to a
computer with a lightning cable, this time you can use the bluetooth keyboard to control your phone.
When you see trust this computer prompted, use the right cursor to choose trust, and press control,
option and space key simultaneously to confirm. Then type the numbers on your
keyboard to enter the passcode. Then you can move on to back up the data to your computer.
Firstly, ask Siri to open iCloud settings, then again use the right cursor key and control,
option and space key to choose iCloud Backup, here choose back up now button. Here it reminds me that
iCloud space is not enough, so please be noted that doing this requires enough iCloud space.
Launch iTunes, and choose whether to back up to iCloud or this computer,
then click back up and wait for the process. After that, you can restore backup to another iDevice.
If you want an easy and fast way to back up iPhone with a broken screen,
look on further from Tenorshare iCareFone. It offers simple solutions to backup iPhone
and has many advantages over backing up data through iTunes.

then go to the backup and restore feature. You can choose what files you want to backup,
here we keep all by default. Then click backup.

then export them to computer or restore to your new device.
