I would like to reset my iphone 7 plus and then reinstall the Apps and the data from icloud. The reason of doing this is because the memory is full and my iphone is slow. I would like to have recommendations. Just want to make sure I can do this without losing when resetting the phone.

Thank you for replying to my question! I did the back up before resetting my iPhone and now my “old” iPhone 7 is working as “new”. I was able to restore all data from the iCloud and then I installed the Apps without any problem.
Thank you again for your help!!!
