Deleting an iCloud backup clears space in iCloud but doesn’t affect iPhone data. However, it means losing the option to restore from that backup, risking permanent loss of any data not backed up elsewhere.

How many backups does iCloud store? iCloud stores only a single backup for a particular device at any time. This means that when you perform a backup again, the new backup gets combined with the existing one. Consequently, iCloud retains only one backup at a time.

An iCloud backup typically takes between 30 minutes and 2 hours, depending on file quantity, internet speed, and device performance.
