Apple really makes setup easy if you are transferring from iPhone to iPhone
Note: Transferring your number from a phone with a SIM card to a phone that uses eSIM will render your old SIM card useless. You can throw it away, as it can never be used again.I’d make sure your phone is backed up to iCloud, which you can do in the settings. Touch your name at the top of the settings screen, touch “iCloud” and make sure “iCloud Backup” is turned on.
You’ll also want to sign out of Find My iPhone, which can be found under the app list in the iCloud preferences. You’ll have to enter your Apple ID and password to disable Find My.While you’re on the iCloud app list, make sure any data you want to move, like photos, passwords/keychain, contacts, calendar, fitness, are turned on so they sync their data to iCloud. That data will be accessible to your new phone when you log into iCloud for the first time.
You’ll have the smoothest experience if your old iPhone is up to date on software updates before you start.. Jim Rossman is a Software System Specialist for the University of Texas at Dallas.
