ICloud

[Speck]

Fishing at Kentucky Lake Saturday. Had a novice crappie fisherman in the boat with me. One of his poles doubled in the water and I grabbed for the net. When I did, my phone slipped out of my hand, bounced off the side of the boat and sank in 15 feet of water. Oh Crap!!! I had everything on that phone. I don't know any phone numbers or anything off the top of my head.
We finished fishing and my buddy from KY, Buffalo13, took me to the ATT store in Benton.
The guy at the store told me I was due for an upgrade. Heck I only had that phone for 5 years. Couldn't believe I was already due for a new one.
He set me up with a new IPhone 5S and then he was able to retrieve all of my info from ICloud and restore every bit of data back on the new phone.
I felt like a ton of bricks was lifted off of me. It's just like I never lost my phone to begin with.
Walked out of there with a new IPhone 5S and was only out of pocket $32.
Lesson learned. Use an off site back up service like ICloud and back up your data. It saved my arse!!!
