<\/span><\/h3>\nThe setup screens take a few minutes; the data transfer is what varies. Apple says it depends on how much data you have and your network speed. With Download from iCloud<\/em> you can use the phone almost straight away while apps and photos fill in.<\/p>\n<\/span>Can I set up a new iPhone without my old phone?<\/span><\/h3>\nYes. Restore from an iCloud backup or a Mac or PC backup on the Transfer Your Apps & Data screen, or set it up as new and sign in to iCloud to sync contacts, photos and notes.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Do I need Wi-Fi to set up a new iPhone?<\/span><\/h3>\nQuick Start can use Wi-Fi or a cellular connection, and an iCloud restore needs Wi-Fi. For eSIM, Apple recommends Wi-Fi or a hotspot, though eSIM-only models can activate without Wi-Fi in some countries.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Does everything transfer to the new iPhone?<\/span><\/h3>\nQuick Start and backups bring over your apps, data and settings. From Android, music, books, PDFs and paid apps don’t come across automatically. Some apps, such as banking and authenticator apps, may ask you to sign in or verify again on the new phone.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Should I set up my new iPhone as new or restore from a backup?<\/span><\/h3>\nRestore if you want everything exactly as it was. Set up as new if your old phone felt cluttered or it’s a different person’s phone; anything you kept in iCloud still syncs back once you sign in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
