Quick Start between devices

Yes, I could try exploring some new voices in previous versions of the iOS, but coming to the beginning again: the Quick Start “automation” process is not “very welcoming” in the sense that it will transfer your old stuff (data and configurations) to the new device to keep you on your businesses immediately.

Certainly is that I am now using my new iPhone 13 without having transferred nothing from iCloud and with manual setup (the opposite of Quick Start), and I am really enjoying exploring the device. Sooner than later I will need to bring here some old stuff…. I hope my new device will not inherit so many garbage stuff that I know I have too in my old phone.

Regarding your request to attach a screen capture of those garbage apps, I am not referring to native iOS apps but some others that I have installed by myself and just used a couple of times.

That is a better answer. Thank you.

Maybe the problem of that feeling is not entirely related to data itself but related to the settings on my old phone. For example, a bunch of unused apps -but still registered in my iCloud information- are again pasted in my Home Screen (maybe just the icon, but usually it looks like garbage).

Or the new Siri voices, for example. It was in my second attempt doing it without Quick Start that I discovered those new voices. In my first attempt the old Siri voice was just set up without telling me: “hey! There are some new Siri voices, would you like to give a try?”

That is why I refer that doing a Quick Start setup looks like “I could miss” some interesting new features, not “preventing access to” because I understand that diving deeper in the new iPhone device and/or its new iOS will probably lead me to discover those features, but Quick Start kind of hide this part… well, that’s why it is called “Quick”, for those that don’t want to pay much attention to new features and put them on track immediately.

“I am not following this thread any longer.”

Ok.

As a suggestion for Apple (if they read around here), it could be great if Quick Start asks the users things like: “Would you like the unused apps in your previous device to be downloaded and installed in your new iPhone or just download de icon or just keep them in iCloud as they are now? (Active and frequently used apps will be installed for sure)”

Here is another one for Quick Start: “Do you want to bring back your old wallpaper or do you want to see the new looks of your new device?”

An so on…

:D

“Not true”, just that. Thank you for nothing. ;)

And I referred to a “feeling”, not to a “preventing access”.
