Note: if you have 2FA applications with one-time keys, do not erase your old phone right away. Transfer the codes to the new phone before erasing.
While you're waiting on your transfer, watch this video to know the FIRST things you need to do on your iPhone 15: czcams.com/video/tPmb-mL_F5E/video.html
FIRST have no clue why I came here when I don’t have an iPhone 15 😂
I’m first too
I won’t make the same mistake. I promise you 😊
We won’t!

My phone to phone transfer from XR to 15Plus was easy and relatively quick. When selecting the local WiFi, the login info wasn’t asked for - nice. I did get an Messages text before sim (card) swap-over that doesn’t appear on the new phone (could be because Messages wasn’t synced/backed-up to iCloud). Before upgrading, I did remove a lot of photos from iCloud to an external drive, making the photos footprint smaller and quicker during the migration. I now have Messages backed-up to iCloud. The Tips app is worth keeping on for a few days. Also, the Migration (before/after) may be a good time to review what’s in your shared photo albums.
such a calm voice with the step-by-step for everyone who is stressful about this. thank you so much.
calm? to me this guy seems like it has a gun pointing to his head lol
Your voice is made for this. I’ve always thought you did voiceovers, but to see you’re talking live is crazy.
Thank you Brandon! I don’t know what I’d do without you. ❤. 😊
I’d recommend avoiding erasing old phone immediately after transfer since restoring some apps to full functionality, in particular, banking or other authentication apps may require the old phone installations.
How do you go about this if that is the case?
@@realdeal139 With both phones on, the authenticator apps will still be working on the old phone. Your banking apps will still be tied to your old phone. These tied apps can be used to ‘activate’ the new installations quite easily as you follow prompts. Usually there are alternative methods but i prefer to have all options available and erase my old phone only when all is setup on the new phone.
Exactly! I hope more people read your comment!
Such great information. Are there any reasons why these methods wouldn’t be recommended and it be better to just start from scratch? Although I’ve paired back many of my apps, I worry that these methods may pull over unwanted older data from uninstalled apps that were left on the phone. Hope this question made sense.
Even though I do this daily, as I work in a mobile store. I still had to watch to support Brandon! I watch every video.
Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day!
Brandon, today I just got my new iPhone 15 Pro Max. Thank you for this video. Transferring from the iPhone 12 Pro Max to the new 15 was simple thanks to your informative video. Thank you.

thanks for all the content, your channel is very informative and entertaining for iOS fan 🙂
Excellent thank you sooo much Brandon!
Thanks for the step by step setup. Nice job!
Brandon Butch makes the best videos ever :)
Thank you for doing this!
Perfect! Got what I could not find anywhere else.
Thank you so much, so helpful. Now, I am waiting till it's done :)
Great explanation. One question though
Is it necessary to update my Old iphone to latest ios software in order to transfer the data from old to new iphone?
Bravo Brandon...you make this so easy and has been a big help!😀 Keep up the great work!
Will this method also copy over all existing text messages from within texting apps like What’s App, Signal, LINE, etc or do they need to be downloaded separately from those servers? Also, what about emails in the Apple Mail app? Do they get copied over too or do they need to be downloaded again from the mail server? And I assume there is no problem with copying over Notes and Files like PDF, DOC, and XLS that are synced with the iCloud Drive?
Thx you for helping me for a tutorial sir and I'm so happy😊
Very helpful! Thank you!
you always making a good Videos and I’m enjoying watching from Philippines 🤩😍
Many thanks !
it was very helpful.
How long does the software update take? It seems to be taking awhile for me and just unsure. Thank you!
This video helped me transfer everything from my 11 to my new 15 Pro! Thanks Brandon!
You are a great teacher, thank you!
Thank you for showing us how to transfer your data to the new iPhone 15 pro it was very helpful
Managed to seamlessly transfer everything from my iPhone 8 although it did take 3 attempts to download the latest software 🤔
Anyway looking forward to watching more of your videos on this super OLED display🎉
Thanks Legend!! It all went to plan as you described.
thank you! worked like a charm!
You video helped us we have been trying to figure out new phone for three hours we watched and got phone figured out in first few seconds of your video Thank you
What if you’ve had bad performance and bugs on your old phone? Would you recommend a fresh start?
Awesome helpful tutorial.📱
This video was very helpful. Thank you sir. Just picked up the standard 15 today. I had 8 for many years and it's no longer being supported. I also just installed Sonoma on my iMac. I picked up the blue 15 and thought the camera side would be blue, but it's pale, blue-white? Going to take some getting used to after 8. Thank you again.
Thank you excellent instructions my iPhone 15 Pro Max will be delivered today, your step by step instructions will make the transition easy.
Can you do a comparison vs encrypted iTunes backup? I lost a lot of app settings eg authenticator etc via the phone to phone backup. Think the iTunes would be faster with USB C on the pro max.
Nicely explained 👍
Very useful video thank you and it worked perfectly for me
You did a great job on this video thank you so much!!
Will both methods transfer all photos including the camera roll photos? or do i need to use a specific transfer method to retain my camera roll photos?
Excellent tutorial, thank you sir
Can you transfer data from one iPhone to the other with a USB-C to Lightning cable?
Thank you
Does it work for iphone xs ?
Does it transfer WhatsApp messages ?
Great video, I love it, very clear and objective, thank you!
Awesome Video!! Thanks Man!!!! 10 Stars!!!!
If you have 2 esims installed on your old phone, does setup give you a choice of transferring both phone numbers or only the primary?
Any chance you have one of these videos for transferring from Samsung to IPhone ? I’m going from an Old Samsung galaxy s10 plus to a new IPhone 15 pro max !! Great videos Brandon, thank you for all you do.
I’m here so early! Not even 5 mins after 😂. But you rock man keep it up
🙌
Brandon, will you be able to use the old iphone as a backup phone?
How about the wallpapers that u created from ur old iphone is it also sync to the new one?? Ty
THANK YOU so much for this. My 15 Pro is arriving tomorrow. I’m upgrading from my old faithful 8 Plus! Wish me luck 🍀😂😂
Thank you bro ❤ very important viedo
thanks man, such a good explanation
Does the method you showed restore all my passwords since those are also app data, or should I just restore from Finder on my Mac?
Amazing, Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for this video. You gave me the confidence to transfer my iPhone XR to iPhone 15 Pro Max. I noticed my iPhone set up did not go in the same order as what you instructed but all was good. :)
Hey buddy we need some battery tests with all the iPhones vs the 15s
thank you so much! Easy peasy!
thank you, very helpful video!!
Does this feature also work when switching from iPhone 7 to 15 Pro?
Thanks a lot man
my update is not taking - any thoughts ? How long did your update take ?
With some carriers it won't let you transfer the ESim that way. It makes you do it through their app.
Hey brandon, please answer, does it transfer whatsapp chats and media?
Question- Do both iPhones have to have the same ios if yes which one?
Would this work with an iPhone SE 2020? I do not want to use the cloud to swap over. I've always just backed up to my PC and cloned it at home and thrown the old phone in a drawer as a backup. However, ATT has a really good promotion going on right now so I'm actually considering traded this in...
Thanks for this video
hey brandon , can you do video on settings you should turn off on ios 17 please ?
question: do I need to do an external backup before I do the iPhone to iPhone transfer thingy (so not the icloud way) or will I be safe, just don't want to lose data
Thank you Brandon I’m still waiting on my iPhone to here but they sent me my watch ❤
When transferring directly from the old to the new iphone (not over icloud backup), is the home screen set up the exact same way as my old phone? Or do I have to reconfigure all of those things... for example? do I need to reset my wallpapers, install my apps again? If I have quite a few uninstalled apps (like old games that I no longer use) will those uninstalled apps be reinstalled automatically, or will my home screen remain as it was on my old phone? Thanks!
Thank you so much! I’m going from an IPhone 12 Mini to an IPhone 14 Pro! This helped a lot today!
Brandon, great video as always! How much data in Gigs did you transfer in 40 minutes?
244GB
@@BrandonButchthat’s a helluva faster than I got with a cable restore.
Is that the amount from About on the new phone or the old?
I noticed the amount on the new phone much is much smaller. Photos space usage is half, but all 27,000 photos are there. I suspect it’s low res versions thing since even the old phone photos library is a fraction of the size in my iCloud and i
on my Mac.
Hi so I followed all your steps but the phone seems to be stuck on the "signing in screen? it shows my iCloud icon. What is the time frame of signing in? it has been on for over an hour? Software update was done.
Upgrading from an 8+ to a 15. Thanks
Do you have to be connected to Wi-Fi to do the transfer
I normally trade in my old phone when I get a new one. What would be the same in this process if that is the case?
Thanks alot evert things was so clear
Please answer as i just got my new iphone 15 pro old phone i iphone 13. will the transfer include the phone history? Tis is SUPER important!!. I know the icloud backup does not help pleaes
May i know if the old and new phones still need to be in close proximity after the transfer is done, while the new phone is still downloading the apps in the background? Or can I just leave the new phone connected with wifi and leave the home with my old iphone in the meantime? Thank you!!
If i have a app no longer on the app store should i do phone to phone or iCloud back up?
wow amazing new tips
I chose default when I got to the appearance stage. How to I change it to medium or large after the fact? Default ended up being wayyyy too small 😢
Thanks this video helped a lot
If starting over from already setting up new phone will erasing the E-SIM off new phone mess anything up for reset?
Once you have transferred everything to your new phone from your old phone and press easer later will your old iPhone still work the exact same if you still wanna use it ?
does my old iphone need to be updated to IOS17 prior to the transfer?
Will this transfer all my music? I have CDs ripped to iTunes on my phone as well as music purchased via iTunes. they are arranged in several playlists. Will the phone to Phone transfer handle that as well? Or do I still have to plug in to my PC and do a Sync after the phone to phone data transfer?
Thank you!
Can you do a video on how to switch from fiscal SIM to ESIM
I wanted to ask, I recently purchased an iPhone 15 Pro and I’m going to upgrade from an IPhone 14. My IPhone 14 uses a physical SIM card, at what point in the set up process do I remove the physical SIM and transfer it to the new phone? Thank you very much!
Thank you, im going transfer data to my old iphone 6s plus to iphone 15 pro.
Is there a way to force sync iMessages on a new iPhone? That’s the only thing I can’t seem to figure out
should we transfer the sim cellular card from old iphone to new iphone before the transfer takes place? or just leave it in the old iphone during the transfer
Hi Brandon, data is successfully transferred to new iPhone 15, but I’m worried about reset of old iPhone, will it affects the photos I back up to iCloud? Because two iPhones album is synced now.
Hey Brandon, can you please suggest to transfer data of iOS 17 running phone to iOS 15 running phone. Kindly suggest some idea on this. I am trying to do but not happening.
@BrandonButch what happens with Health app data doing this method?
Does this method also transfer all music on the iPhone or just iTunes purchases?
Thank you!
hello will the passwords on the old phone saved to the iphone passwords be transferred also to the new iphone?
Do you need to pay for iCloud for this transfer?
