New iPhone set up

I set up my new phone why does it say “ready to set up new iPhone?“ Do I need to do something because I already reset my old phone. It also says something about deleting in 21 days? Am I going to loose all of my information and data?

Hello A_person_in_need_of_help,  

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities.  


How did you restore your new iPhone originally? Did you use an iCloud backup, or a backup saved to a computer?


If you still have your original device, you can follow these instructions to transfer things to your new iPhone: Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Please reply back if you need more help.

Cheers!

Thanks for replying, A_person_in_need_of_help, and that additional info, it really helps! After an iCloud backup restore, there maybe some additional steps that may need to be done to finish setting up the device, and here is more info: About missing information after you restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iCloud Backup - Apple Support


If you need further support, please contact Apple directly for further assistance: Apple Support
