File transfer from iPhone 7 to iPhone 12 Pro is taking more than a day. Native Apple apps loaded quickly. Other apps are not loading. I logged out and signed in again on iTunes account on new phone, but no dice. Both phones are on iOS 14.5.1. Old phone has 73 GB of 128 GB in use. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Thanks for any ideas.
iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14
Hey there MNTransplant,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. If we understand you correctly, you're using the Quick Start method to transfer data from one device to another. We're happy to provide some assistance.
Are you transferring data wirelessly? If so, try a wired connection as outlined under the "Migrate data from your iPhone using a wired connection" section here:
Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Otherwise, you can backup and restore using iCloud or iTunes:
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup
We hope this helps.
Have a great day!

Thanks for the reply. I gave up on the phone_to_phone transfer and used the iTunes backup on the desktop computer. Much faster.
Slow phone-to-phone file transfer
