When you get a new iPhone, you probably want to transfer all your iTunes purchases and apps to it. After all, there is a lot of money in it. So you take them with you.
If you use your iPhone a lot, you’ll accumulate a lot of apps and iTunes content on it over time. Most of them cost a lot of money. If you now get a new iPhone, you obviously don’t want to buy all this content again. Fortunately, Apple offers a solution here.
This mainly has to do with your Apple ID, your iOS account. As long as you have access to these, you can easily get your iTunes content back on other devices. Data recovery is done in one step.
When setting up your new iPhone, we always recommend the iOS quick start function. This means that purchased apps and data end up directly on the new device. However, if you bought an app or a film that was no longer on the old device, you can restore the purchase. To do this, follow the steps below.
It works similarly for purchases you made through iTunes. So if you bought music or films on your iPad, you can also enjoy them on your iPhone using the following settings.
This guide is part of our ultimate iOS guide. In this we take you by the hand from the setup of your iPhone to the thorough deletion of the mobile phone memory. The entire table of contents can be found at the top of this page.
