You can certainly schedule an appointment. But honestly, setting up a new iPhone from the backup of a previous phone is really easy.


Here are two links for you.


First how to backup your phone --> How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

You can choose from one of three different ways. iCloud being the simplest


Then, once you've backed up, this link tells you how to move the date to a new phone --> Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

QuickStart is the easiest and works so well.


Still if you feel this all beyond your capabilities, Apple will help you. But you need an appointment first.
