Added

  • Choose how many uploads run at once, from 1 to 10, in Settings → Backup. The default stays at 2, so nothing changes unless you raise it.

    More at once finishes a large backup sooner, but each upload stages a full-size copy on the device while it runs, so high values use more storage, battery and data at the same time. Raising the setting starts more work straight away; lowering it never cancels an upload already in progress, it just stops new ones starting until the count comes back down.

Changed

  • The Backed up figure on Home now comes from the durable record of what has been backed up, rather than a separate counter kept alongside it. Re-checking a library that is already in the cloud no longer risks the number drifting.

Notes

  • 102 tests, 99 passing (2 opt-in live tests and 1 Simulator Keychain test skipped).
  • The Simulator cannot run background uploads or schedule background tasks. Use a device to exercise real backup behaviour.
