4s phone fell in the ocean

Can I just buy a new iPhone from Apple and connect it to my iTunes account to reload my phone with my information? Will it tell the new phone its phone number also?


iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 13

If you were using iCloud to back up your device, yes. You can restore from iCloud.


If you were using some other means of backup such as the iTunes app on macOS or Windows, you will have to restore from that.


Your purchases and subscriptions are tied to your Apple ID, and accessible across all devices associated with that Apple ID.
