T - Wiping Old iphone Advice

[Dawn Korus]

Not being technically minded could someone please help with a question I have.

I have a new iPhone as part of an upgrade and am looking to sell my old phone. If I 'Erase all content and settings' will it then remove everything from my new phone that I've set up from iCloud or just on the old handset?

Thanks

Just the phone.

So, do a backup to iCloud just to make sure you've got everything you want (check what you are backing up as part of this)

Then, so a full erase.

Finally, restore the iCloud backup on the new phone.

I would recommend that you upload your icloud backup to your new phone before wiping your old one - incase something isn't included you might regret deleting!

I had to wipe my iPad after looking at those photos of Kirsty Gallagher. I used a tissue. Hope this helps.

Sidebar - My iCloud is full. Is there a way I can access the full list of items in there with a view to deleting stuff?
