Hi Nerdimnot,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand your messages didn’t transfer from your old device. We’re happy to help.


If you do not have access to your old iPhone, you can enable Messages in iCloud to keep your entire message history updated across your devices:


Keep all your messages in iCloud


We hope this helps.


Take care.
