How to set up your new iPhone the right way
- Apple continuously improves the steps needed to set up an iPhone. Certain tips and tricks can smooth the way. Here’s how to set up your new iPhone the right way.
- The first thing you want to do when you go to set up your new iPhone is to back up the old one. This will make transferring your data to the new iPhone a lot easier.
- The easiest way to set up a new iPhone is to use Apple’s Quick Start feature, which quickly transfers settings and apps from your old iPhone to your new one.
- Like the new iPhone setup process, Face ID — Apple’s facial-recognition security feature — becomes better every year. Newer iPhones can check your face with a mask on or with the phone sitting horizontally.
- You have a few different choices for how to move your data over during the new iPhone setup process. If this is your first smartphone, just tap Don’t Transfer Apps & Data.
- If your old iPhone has been lost, stolen, shattered, exploded or is otherwise no longer of this world, you can tap Restore from iCloud Backup on your new iPhone. This option will set up your new iPhone exactly like your old phone.
- The next step to set up your new iPhone is signing in with your Apple Account (formerly known as Apple ID). This will enable all the essential Apple services.
- Make sure to turn on iMessage and FaceTime. Then enable Location Services, iCloud Keychain and Apple Pay. And don’t skip setting up Siri.
- If this is your first iPhone, you might want some more guidance on getting comfortable after you’re all set up.
- Note: D. Griffin Jones contributed to this article. We originally published this article on how to set up iPhone on September 20, 2019. We updated the information.

5 things I want to see from the Apple Watch in 2025
- Apple Watch Series 10 was a pretty good one, but there’s still room for improvement in 2025.
- Apple should improve the battery life of the regular Apple Watch Series models to last more than a single day to stay ahead of the competition.
- An updated look to the Apple Watch is long overdue and could turn around the casual wearers’ interest for the device.
- Third-party apps can be downloaded to create custom watch faces, but Apple should enable the ability to create fully custom watch faces, which could be a game-changer.
- Apple should come up with a new band attachment mechanism like a magnetic band system or adapt a universal 20mm watch strap, similar to Samsung’s Galaxy Watches.
- A major improvement, as it’s not impossible, would be to expand the charging features. Rather than sticking to a proprietary, standalone charging puck, Apple should allow jerseys to charge via a MagSafe charger.
- Though rumors suggest that Apple could release AR glasses in 2025, Apple Watch is still top of the wearable market.
- These upgrades would enhance the overall user experience for Apple Watch Series devices and attract more people to the device.
- It remains to be seen what next year, and even the next decade, holds for the Apple Watch. Still, users can look forward to Apple making some necessary improvements in the coming years.
- Exciting developments are still expected, even though some of these may be pipe dreams.
