Hi,

Your iPhone does not backup specifically by app.  The iPhone doesn't even 
backup the Apple apps that are stock to the iPhone.  During the backup process, 
the layout of the iPhone screens is saved, markers for each app are recorded, 
settings are saved, and some local data and media that is not already kept in 
iCloud is saved.  Subsequent backups only record changes which all keeps the 
backup quite small in comparison to what's actually on your iPhone.  When you 
delete specific apps, their data is removed from the iPhone, but not 
necessarily from the iCloud storage location.  To save space, you can delete 
any old iOS device backups totally, you could tell iCloud not to save data for 
certain apps in iCloud itself, and/or even delete the backup for your current 
device and start from scratch.  The 5 GB free storage amount is usually fine 
for straight backups but when you start including photos, multiple device 
backups, multiple app syncing etc, you're going to run out quite quickly and no 
real tweaking will fix that unless you get rid of much of the iCloud media like 
photos or documents.  Most sync data and settings are not sizeable enough to 
make that much of a difference.  The next plan that's about $1 a month usually 
fixes all storage problems by giving you 50 GB storage instead of the free five.

Later...
