How do I transfer my messages from my old iPhone onto my new iPhone? My old iPhone can not be turned on. And my old number does not belong to me anymore since it was inactive for over 30 days
iPhone XS Max, iOS 13
If you were syncing Messages with iCloud, if you sign into Messages using the same Apple ID, do the Messages sync? If you weren't syncing Messages with iCloud, do you have a backup you can restore from? Restoring from a backup erases all data currently on your device. Any data newer than when the backup was made will be erased. A restore is an all or nothing restore. You can't access a backup and only restore certain files.
Backup - Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup.
