Hey sdas, moving to a new phone is the easy part. Keeping ten years of photos, chats and logins intact takes a little more care. Three things need to happen, in this order: back up your data, transfer it to the new phone, then wipe the old one. Run them out of order and you can lose photos, lock yourself out of your accounts, or hand the next owner a phone that no longer works. Our new guide walks through all three steps for iPhone and Android, plus the things most people forget: Authenticator apps need to move before you wipe, or you're locked out of your own accounts. Switching to Android? Turn off iMessage first, or your texts keep going to your old phone. Remove your Google account before factory resetting an Android. Skip it and Factory Reset Protection makes the phone unusable. Ten minutes of reading now saves hours of recovery later.
