Factory reset

Hi I’ve recently upgraded a iPhone 7 to a iPhone 12. My husband would like my iPhone 7 and I would like to reset everything to factory settings but I don’t want it to delete anything of my new iPhone.

iPhone 7, iOS 14

If you restore your iPhone 7, it will not affect the iPhone 12.


I appreciate you are only giving your old device to your husband, but you may still find the information on the article below essential, especially if you do not share an Apple ID.
