How to Transfer All Data and Apps from Old to New iPhone 

You should make a tutorial on how to make a tutorial bc this tutorial is perfect.

Your calm voice, clear directions, and straight-forward demonstrations are second to none! I wish I could give you a thousand Likes and subscriptions. You just earned my subscription, Jessica. You rock!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Bluetooth must be enabled on both phones for option 1 to work. I didn't know this and too me too long to figure it out

Nice one Jess', managed to achieve the 'impossible' thanks to your brilliant, calm, clear & concise talk-through. Opted for the iTunes back-up method, worked really well. Many thanks.

This is the best video for transferring data from old to new iPhones. Thank you.

Wow! I am sooo computer illiterate and I went through many google searches with no help. This site was Amazing!!! Step by Step, Well Paced and Understandable! A++++++++

Thank you Jessica, I moved my stuff from my old iPhone 6 to new iPhone 8. It works great.

Thank you so much. Option 3 via iTunes worked perfectly.

I add my thanks, Jessica. Option 3 was swift, painless, effective, and involved no trip to the Apple Store. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

Thank you so much! I recently found my old 1st Gen IPad and wanted to get a apps data on my new IPhone and really couldn't find any good tutorials with anything that involved the "computer method" as the ipad was 5.1.1 ios and majority of videos did the first or second method in this video thank you so much as it worked.

I’m going to have to change phones soon, so seeing this, calmed me down for when I have to transfer data - thanks.

The first option worked great for me, but I had to do this: 1) Enabled Bluetooth on my old phone to get the two phones to connect to each other. "Set Up New iPhone" pop-up window appeared on old phone. 2) On new phone, I went as far as the prompts would allow but got stuck at a software update. (New phone had already connected to wifi without me needing to input password.) 3) Installed software update on new phone. 4) On new phone, went into Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings. New phone restarted to "Hello" screen. 5) Clicked "Hello" screen on new phone, then "Set Up New iPhone" pop-up window appeared again on old phone. Followed prompts. All my data transferred perfectly! I just had to wait a few minutes for all my apps to finish downloading on the new phone. THANK YOU!!

If you do the first choice, when do you transfer your SIM card?

I have a question what if you have an old iPad and it's stopped on iOS 10 and you back up your new iPad can you get the new iOS

Great video!! This is going to be so helpful when my new phone arrives...thanks so much☺️

Thank you so much for this clear and easy process video. Really saved me a lot of time and headache. 👍

This way was the only way I could get my new Iphone 12 mini to transfer from my Iphone 7, for some reason. Thanks!

Does it save every bit of data on the individual apps? Not just apple ones as well, for example I use google mail and notes, will they be the same? And what about all the settings (also I know that I could just log into the account, that was just for an example)

Hi best video i have seen. Great job! You showed everything very clearly and the speed you talked was perfect. Thank you :-)

Thank you very much for such a clear explanation.

I had to update my phone's software first and then was able to use the first method until I went to settings on the new phone and erased all data and settings. Then worked great. Thanks.

Just used your instructions from my 4s to my 7 THANK YOU Jessica Techboom!

Thanks TechBoomers for the video! It’s a great help for me to transfer my old iPhone to my new iPhone!

Thank you. This is super easy to understand.

Thank you very much. This was helpful after T-Mobile told me they don’t restore customers phone no more. Very easy to follow. Very precise. Thanks again 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thanks Tech Boomers

Do all methods get the same results? Will some methods make me have to re-enter a bunch of passwords after I’m finished? What is the absolute best method to prevent this from happening? Thanks

Thanks bench!!! Yaaaayyy!!! That’s what I’m talking about! You are so helpful. Seriously. All jokes aside you really helped.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Saved me a lot of time and effort; didn't wanna bother other people!!!!

I managed to transfer some data via method 3...but no pics, no contacts, and music not obtained specifically through the iTunes Store is nowhere to be found. Unfortunately I thought that it simply had to be set up and now it’s set up and is unrecognizable as a new iPhone. Also, I cannot activate it. Wonderful.

Thank you so much for the vid now I can use my new iPhone 11

Thanks used to have a iPad 2018 and now upgraded to the iPad mini 5 thanks by the way 😀😀😀🙏🙏

Very Helpful for those people who wanted to transfer their data from one iphone to an another iphone. Very Nicely explained.

Question: I've been using my new iPhone for 2 months now and have pictures in it that I want to keep. I wanted to transfer all my data from my old iPhone to my new one. Is there a way to keep all data I have on my new phone? Will the transfer erase my current data files on the new phone?

What do you do if your old iPhone is broken and you can‘t really do anything on it anymore?

Option 1 worked for me, thank you

Well done, clear and precise instructions on all three ways to swop data, very good. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant video thanks!

This was awesome you help me get through the whole process! Thank you

Great Job ! Thank you.

Three questions..... 1. Which one of these methods will copy my existing text messages and texted pictures over to the new phone? 2. Which one of these methods will copy my pictures over but still keep the album folders I created with the pictures I put in them intact while transferring them to the new phone? 3. Which one does both if any? Thank you!

What about the sim when do you move it from old phone to new one

How do I get the quick start to work? It’s not I’m the settings?

So does it transfer passwords as well?

IMPORTANT- I have VERY important notes for school on my voice memos. Will it save when I transfer the data?

Super helpful, thank you!!!

Should you move the SIM card from the old phone to the new phone first?

My only issue with #2 is that it requires the new phone to not be booted up yet. Is there a way to do this with a phone that’s already been started?

This was very useful. I used the third option and it worked like a dream! Thank you so much.

Do you have to set up the new phone when using the first method?

Do I need to take my SIM card out of my old iPhone before I do method one?

Who ever you are. I freaking love you. Everything was explained clearly. Thank you so much. I hope you win the lottery.

Thank you so much for this Demo :)

Can ICloud be used if two different phones are being upgraded to new and they both use the same Apple ID?

Very nice and clear. Thks!

Great video thanks for making it.

What method allows current app in new phone to not disappear? I have a feeling if you do a backup, all photos/apps in the new phone will be gone and replaced with the ones in the backup. Let’s say I have GarageBand in the new one but not the old one, how do I make sure that GarageBand will still be there in the new phone?

In order to use the 3rd method...ITunes...can I use iTunes on my iPad or do I actually need a desktop computer?

I hope someone answers asp but i will use my old iphone for few days so can i transfer my information to the old phone and back to the newer phone once it gets out of the repair shop?

this is perfect, thank you so much:))

Dear madam. The way of your explanation is very good to understand. Thanks for making such videos

When you transfer from phone to phone, the apps only work if its still available to re-download in the itunes store. if the app is no longer available, the phone tells you its not available and then prompts you to delete the app. How can I circumvent this? I love the app that is no longer available and need it on the new phone

Hello if I choose method 1 that’s wireless right? that’s means no wifi needed I’ll use my data if I use that method all the data and files will be transfer ? First time I’m gonna do this mostly I used iCloud since I don’t have wi fi . Please reply back if you can Thank you .

Tysm! It helped me alot

About to upgrade to a new phone, and the last time I had to have my phone replaced, it Refused to use my old iTunes backup to set up the new phone, so I’m rather concerned. Hopefully it works this time.

Hi there. Can I use the direct transfer method, WHILE the old phone is still backing everything up to icloud (haven't done it in err a few years so could take a day or so..). Or should I wait regardless? Thanks!

Does the data in the apps like Snapchat all get saved as well?

Desperate need of help. I am attempting this using iTunes. I managed to backup the old iPhone (which is all jacked up). But when I plug in my new phone, it doesn't appear in iTunes.

Techboomers, I have several apps that are offloaded in order to save space. Would I need to reinstall them before I can do the back up and the transfer, or will the data still get transferred over even though it has been offloaded?

I have a 16G iPhone 6 Plus. How long does it take to transfer all data to iPhone 10XL if l choose the Quick Start ( first one)?

When do you switch the SIM card?

Question...when I "restore everything" from my old iphine to my new one...does it restore let's say my recent (sent/received) messages,videos,voice notes and pictures from Whatsapp too? ... Cuz I have a lot of important stuff I don't wanna lose during this process

Question, does quick start also transfer game data? I’m going to be getting a new phone and I don’t want to lose my precious game data i worked so hard to achieve.

Great video !

ok boomer that was very helpful thanks

Super helpful Thank You

Did u have to re log into your email accounts or were you auto logged in

Do you have to reset the phone your going to transfer too if it was used before me?

talked to an apple care person and he spent about 15 minutes and couldn't figure it out. nuts. thanks for your help.

If there is an iCloud account set up with the phone. Will that mess up the process or is it the same?

Hello I have an app could document will that also be transferred to the new iPhone without it deleting the songs I have downloaded

Does it save all the photos too?

Do I transfer my sim from my old phone into the new one, and start the transfer procedure ?

So does it transfer games?

Thanks!

Hi everyone, and especially Jesse. I just have one question. Should I choose iTunes over iCloud? I'm asking this because I want the faster yet safest choice. I'm on a 200 Mbps internet connection, and my PC (currently) is a 9th Gen Core i9, with 1 TB Nvme as my system drive. Anyone's help would be highly appreciated. Hemant Pande MD.

whats about passwords from wifi networks ?

When you pass your data to a new iPhone does it restore your game data to from where you left it?????

Does this include fingerprints and saved passwords by any chance ?

Very useful. Nice 👍

THANKS BOOMER

Thank you! Last one worked for me.

Never backing up info on iCloud

Does this transfer all the chatting history/record from social media like whatsapp as well ???

Thank you so much for making this video! I truly appreciate it. You’re a big help!

Great job!!!!!

would the third method still work if I have backed up my old phone, but then reset it because I had to switch it in for a new iPhone?

Omgg thank you soo much

Will the first option for setting up keep my online accounts? (Including RU-vid, Wattpad, Pinterest, etc.)

Can I do this from IPhone 6 to 7? Pls and thank you.
