I upgraded to new phone. Do I wipe the old one first or remove it from my account first I transferred all the data to my iPhone 16pro and have been using it for a week. I feel it’s safe to wipe my old IPhone 13pro. Does it get wiped first, or removed from my account first, or does it not matter the order?
