Keep the phone on Wi-Fi and plugged into power. Your settings and preferences will restore first, followed by the gradual download of your apps and photos. Method 2: Using Apple Devices or iTunes (The Fast Way)

When prompted on the iPhone screen, tap "Trust" and enter your passcode.

If you still have your old iPhone in your hand, Quick Start is the easiest "automatic" method.

💡 Keep your old phone for at least 24 hours after the transfer. Check that your banking apps, 2FA codes, and WhatsApp chats have moved over correctly before you factory reset the old device.

Apps do not technically live inside a backup; the backup just tells the phone to download them from the App Store. If an app is no longer available in the store, it won't download.
