Turn on and set up iPhone

To make setup as smooth as possible, have the following items available:

• An Internet connection through a Wi-Fi network (you may need the name and password of the network) or cellular data service through a carrier

• Your Apple ID and password; if you don’t have an Apple ID, you can create one during setup

• Your credit or debit card account information, if you want to add a card to Apple Pay during setup on supported models

• Your previous iPhone (or its backup data) or Android device, if you’re moving to a new iPhone

1. Press and hold the side button or Sleep/Wake button (depending on your model) until the Apple logo appears.

   

   If iPhone doesn’t turn on, you might need to charge the battery. For more help, see the Apple Support article If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t turn on or is frozen.

2. Do one of the following:

   • If you have another iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 11 or later, you can use it to automatically set up your new device with Quick Start. Bring the two devices close together, then follow the onscreen instructions to securely copy many of your settings, preferences, and iCloud Keychain.

   • If you don’t have another iOS device, tap Set Up Manually, then follow the onscreen setup instructions.

When you first set up your new iPhone, you can automatically and securely move your data from an Android device.

1. On your device with Android version 4.0 or later, see the Apple Support article Move from Android to iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and download the Move to iOS app.

2. On your iPhone:

   1. Follow the setup assistant.

   2. On the Apps & Data screen, tap Move Data from Android.

3. On the Android device:

   1. Turn on Wi-Fi.

   2. Open the Move to iOS app.

   3. Follow the onscreen instructions.
