  • Scroll down and tap on iCloud Backup.
  • Toggle on iCloud Backup if it’s not already enabled.
  • Tap Back Up Now and wait for the backup process to complete.

Step 2: Set Up Your New iPhone

Once you have created a backup of your old iPhone, it’s time to set up your new iPhone. Follow these steps:

  • Turn on your new iPhone by pressing and holding the power button until the Apple logo appears.
