hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and if you have an iPhone 5s or newer
that can have iOS 12.4 there's a new way to transfer information so maybe you
don't have access to iTunes on a computer or maybe you don't have access
to a large iCloud backup this will allow you to transfer all of your settings and
other data from your old phone to your new phone so I wanted to show you how to
do that you still will need a Wi-Fi connection
but you can also direct transfer from here to here depending on which device
you have but it will still use Wi-Fi to download all of the apps and then it
will move all of your data into that now first let's go over what's actually
transferred and then we'll move everything over so a direct transfer is
a new way you can transfer and it copies information such as your iTunes
encrypted backup would so all of your photos media app data settings and more
are sent over a peer-to-peer wireless connection or like I said you can wire
them but you will need these two things to do that you will need a lightning to
USB cable and then your lightning cable so you'll plug into here and then plug
each end into a device and then you can actually transfer the data you would
only really want to do that if you had a very poor network connection at home
otherwise the wireless waste and the wireless way is the way to go now let's
go ahead and set this up we'll swipe up and you'll see it pops up and says would
you like to set up a new phone it'll have your Apple ID there and everything
so we'll go ahead and hit continue now that this has popped up what we want to
do is just put it in the camera of our phone and now it will start the transfer
so it'll say just a moment and it'll set everything up so now that it's at this
point we need to put in the password or the passcode from our old phone to
unlock it to put it into here our new phone so let's go ahead and do that
it'll say setting up your phone so we'll set this one down here and it says it
may take a few minutes to activate your phone so again you will need Wi-Fi to
activate it and to transfer your data now wait for this a few minutes and then
when this parts done we'll go to the next step now it wants us to set up face
ID so I'll go ahead and do that now you may have touch ID so if you have touch
ID set that up with your thumb or fingerprint
I'll set up face ID quickly so face ID is now set up I'll hit continue and this
is the new part where it says transfer your data transfer from iPhone transfer
directly so that this iPhone will be ready with your data when when you
finish setting up so let's go ahead and do that so we'll go ahead and tap on
this button here it'll say setting up your Apple ID still and your old phone
will be unusable for a little while while you do this so keep that in mind
but we'll give it just a moment now we have to agree to the terms and
conditions and it says settings from your other phone we'll just hit continue
so we'll bring everything over automatically and then Apple pay we can
set that up later or continue you'll have to set that up again because that's
a security issue so we'll just hit setup later and then if you're using an Apple
watch and you want to move it from the old phone to the new one without having
to set everything up again hit continue or you can set that up later now this is
app analytics this allows developers to see you when there's crashes and things
it doesn't necessarily let them see your personal data but it does let them see
the crash information you can decide to share that or not share that it's up to
you and now it says transferring data from Aaron's iPhone 8 plus and you'll
see there's the transfer status and this will take a while and again you won't be
able to use the phone while it's doing this so we'll just let this run and
hopefully it doesn't take too long I think it took about 15 minutes before
when I tried this but we'll see it'll tell us in just a moment now it's saying
we have about 23 minutes left this number started at 44 and rapidly
decreased to 23 it just depends on your network and also if you want to go
faster again you could use a direct connection like this cable if you really
wanted to so keep that in mind but we'll wait for this to finish and we'll take a
look at what it looks like when it's done now that the transfer is complete
it says transfer complete on the old phone you'll hit continue and all of
your information should match on this phone once it reboots it starts a reboot
as soon as it finishes transferring so we'll wait for this to reboot and when
it does we'll see what's over or transferred over now the phone has
rebooted and you can see the wallpaper now matches so let's go ahead and unlock
it there we go now they match completely all of the
apps are going to install but all of the app data
should also be there as well so it may take a little bit but if we go into
music so in music you'll have all of the same music but if you have iCloud music
it will just redownload those since it's easier to do that and we'll hit OK here
and now everything is the same so all of your photos everything else should move
by itself and it will move all of the app data into place and you're ready to
go so it may take a while to install all the different apps and things that
you're used to using but you no longer need to use your iCloud backup that's
only maybe five gigabytes if you don't pay for extra storage and maybe you
don't have iTunes or a computer to transfer all of this information so it's
really simple but you will need I Oh s 12.4 or newer so that's the catch with
that so all of the exact same settings should be the same if we go into
settings you'll see it's got my iCloud ID there if we go to display even the
display settings are the same how I set them for a video so I turn off true tone
and all of those different things for video and you'll see even those settings
have carried across so the only thing you'll need to set up new is your Apple
wallet for security reasons and that's about it
everything should be the same and hopefully that helps let me know if you
have any other questions in the comments below though and of course I'll link
