Resetting old phone

If I erase all content and settings on my old phone will it erase everything on my new phone ? I have already backed up my information from my old phone to my new phone.

iPhone XS Max, iOS 14

Hi jahyonda,

Thanks for reaching out using Apple Support Communities. Here to help.


Since you have been able to transfer your information to your new iPhone from backup, you are good to go to delete the older iPhones contents. Erasing content on one device will not impact another device. You can also read more about what to do before parting with your old iPhone at the link below.


What to do before you sell, give away or trade in


Hope this helps! Take care for now.
