Are you thinking about purchasing an iPhone soon? With Quick Start, you can get your new iPhone up and running with all your data, settings, and contacts transferred from your old device! Since the transfer process may take more than a few minutes, pick a time when you won’t use your phone.
Ensure that both devices are charged with the old iPhone’s Bluetooth and the Wi-Fi turned on. If you’re using a pre-owned iPhone, erase it and reset it to factory default.
As soon as you power on your new device, place it next to the old one. Click Continue once you see a screen appearing on the old iPhone asking if you wish to use your Apple ID for setting up the new phone.
As soon as you see an animation appearing on the new iPhone, hold the old phone over it. Once you see a viewing window, try to center the animation in it. A message will prompt you to Finish on New iPhone. Tap Authenticate Manually if your old phone’s camera isn’t working.
When prompted, enter the old iPhone’s passcode on your new device. Be sure that you follow the instructions and Set Up Face ID or Touch ID on the new iPhone. Next, you’ll be asked to enter your Apple ID password.
When asked how you want to transfer information to your new phone, choose Transfer Directly from iPhone.
You’ll be at the point in the process where you can choose some of the settings you’ve been planning to transfer. These include Siri, privacy, location, and Apple Pay.
While waiting for the transfer process to be completed, be sure to keep your phones next to each other and connect them to power.
