Force phone backup?

[alfonskr]

Does anyone know how to make sure my phone gets backed up to the cloud? My old Lumia 822 had issues and I got my new one in the mail today, but I don't wanna switch phones over until I know that my new phone will be up to date, not some random restore point from like a month or two ago.

Go into "Backup" in your settings...and click into each of the 3 options. Click into App List + Settings and you will see a "Last Backup" date AND a "Back up now" option.

Funny that it says "backup" and "back up". 1st is the noun form, second is the verb.
