Note: if you have 2FA applications with one-time keys, do not erase your old phone right away. Transfer the codes to the new phone before erasing. While you're waiting on your transfer, watch this video to know the FIRST things you need to do on your iPhone 15: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qradlZCescWqZXk.html

My phone to phone transfer from XR to 15Plus was easy and relatively quick. When selecting the local WiFi, the login info wasn’t asked for - nice. I did get an Messages text before sim (card) swap-over that doesn’t appear on the new phone (could be because Messages wasn’t synced/backed-up to iCloud). Before upgrading, I did remove a lot of photos from iCloud to an external drive, making the photos footprint smaller and quicker during the migration. I now have Messages backed-up to iCloud. The Tips app is worth keeping on for a few days. Also, the Migration (before/after) may be a good time to review what’s in your shared photo albums.

I’d recommend avoiding erasing old phone immediately after transfer since restoring some apps to full functionality, in particular, banking or other authentication apps may require the old phone installations.

@realdeal139 8 ай бұрын

How do you go about this if that is the case?

@curtism5333 8 ай бұрын

@@realdeal139 With both phones on, the authenticator apps will still be working on the old phone. Your banking apps will still be tied to your old phone. These tied apps can be used to ‘activate’ the new installations quite easily as you follow prompts. Usually there are alternative methods but i prefer to have all options available and erase my old phone only when all is setup on the new phone.

Such great information. Are there any reasons why these methods wouldn’t be recommended and it be better to just start from scratch? Although I’ve paired back many of my apps, I worry that these methods may pull over unwanted older data from uninstalled apps that were left on the phone. Hope this question made sense.

Will this method also copy over all existing text messages from within texting apps like What’s App, Signal, LINE, etc or do they need to be downloaded separately from those servers? Also, what about emails in the Apple Mail app? Do they get copied over too or do they need to be downloaded again from the mail server? And I assume there is no problem with copying over Notes and Files like PDF, DOC, and XLS that are synced with the iCloud Drive?

@CNsAdventures 8 ай бұрын

When you did the transfer did it transfer 100 percent everything that was on your current phone at that very moment? Or was there a specific time that it would transfer from? I’m asking cuz I am going from 14 pro max to 15 pro max but right under my iCloud picture, it says “this update will expire in 13 days” just a little confused on that

@@BrandonButchthat’s a helluva faster than I got with a cable restore. Is that the amount from About on the new phone or the old? I noticed the amount on the new phone much is much smaller. Photos space usage is half, but all 27,000 photos are there. I suspect it’s low res versions thing since even the old phone photos library is a fraction of the size in my iCloud and i on my Mac.

When transferring directly from the old to the new iphone (not over icloud backup), is the home screen set up the exact same way as my old phone? Or do I have to reconfigure all of those things... for example? do I need to reset my wallpapers, install my apps again? If I have quite a few uninstalled apps (like old games that I no longer use) will those uninstalled apps be reinstalled automatically, or will my home screen remain as it was on my old phone?
