Apple’s ecosystem and a number of built-in capabilities make data transfers between iPhones easy and seamless. You have multiple options to select from when it comes to moving data to another device or simply upgrading to a new iPhone. This is a comprehensive tutorial that explains how to move data across iPhones:
Make a Backup of Your previous iPhone: It’s imperative to make a backup of your previous iPhone before moving any data. iCloud or iTunes/Finder on your PC can be used for this.
iCloud Data Backup:
Link your outdated iPhone to a network.
Navigate to Settings > iCloud > iCloud Backup under [Your Name].
Activate iCloud Backup by selecting “Back Up Now.” Make sure your device is on Wi-Fi until the procedure is finished.
iTunes/Finder Backup:
Use a USB cord to connect your outdated iPhone to your PC.
Launch the Finder (on macOS Catalina and later) or iTunes (on macOS Mojave and before).
When your iPhone shows up in Finder or iTunes, select it.
Selecting “Back Up Now” will start a computer backup.
Configure Your Novel iPhone:
To set up your new iPhone, turn it on and follow the on-screen directions. Select the language, area, and other settings that you want.
Transmit Data While Configuring:
Select between configuring your new iPhone from an iCloud backup or a PC backup (iTunes/Finder) when prompted.
From the list, pick your old iPhone’s most recent backup. Your new iPhone will receive your data, settings, apps, and other material as a result.
Data Transfer Following Setup:
You can use iCloud or iTunes/Finder to transfer data if you’ve already set up your new iPhone or if you’d rather do it later.
Making Use of iCloud:
Make sure iCloud Backup is enabled on your previous iPhone by going to Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup.
Select “Back Up Now” to make a last iCloud backup of your old iPhone.
Once you get to the “Apps & Data” screen on your new iPhone, simply follow the on-screen setup instructions.
Select “Restore from iCloud Backup” and enter your Apple ID to access iCloud.
From the list, choose the most recent backup of your previous iPhone, then wait for the data transfer to finish.
Using the Finder or iTunes:
Open iTunes or the Finder on your computer after connecting your old iPhone to it.
When your iPhone shows up in Finder or iTunes, select it.
Click “Restore Backup” and choose your old iPhone’s most recent backup from the list.
Press “Restore” and give the procedure some time to complete. After restarting, your new iPhone will start to transfer data from the backup.
Sync Any More Content:
Your new iPhone will automatically download apps, music, and other material from iCloud after data transfer. Make sure you have enough storage space for the downloads and that you are connected to Wi-Fi.
Verify and Adjust the Preferences:
Examine your new iPhone’s settings and preferences after the data transfer. Notifications, privacy preferences, app permissions, and other things are included in this.
Check the Transfer of Data:
Check to see if your contacts, messages, data, images, and other stuff have all been moved to your new iPhone by opening a few different apps.
Delete Your Previous iPhone Optionally:
You can remove your personal data and settings from your previous iPhone by wiping it after you’re sure all the data has been transferred. Go to Erase All Content and Settings under Settings > General > Reset.
You may guarantee a seamless transfer between devices while protecting your priceless information and settings by following these instructions to transfer all of your data from your old iPhone to your new iPhone.
