I am looking to code my car for the first time. After watching the videos, I understand you should code each section then apply before moving to the next section And each time it makes a backup. My question is if you restore a backup, do you just restore the latest backup or the first backup or each backup in reverse order if you wanted to go to the original setting? Thanks for any input.

Its by date and time, revert to the backup that initially changed the setting. You don’t need to revert through the list to get back to where you made the original change.

I've been searching for a method to rename these backup files to make them easier to discern. In my situation, its difficult to access the files on an iphone. I keep trying.

I don’t think you can. What I did was take a screenshot of the parameter changed. Then use the timestamp on the iPhone photo to know which backup is associated to it.

That's probably ok for a stop-gap measure. I'm still working on it.
