Greetings, Deiedeie!


Welcome to Apple Support Communities! If we understand correctly, you want to find out if your older browsing history and data will show up on a new iPhone in Safari. We can understand your concerns. We'll do all we can to help you find the information you need.


It is possible that the data in Safari transferred over from one device to the other if you restored data from an iCloud backup. If you would like to remove this Safari data, look over the information on this page: Clear the history and cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.


We hope this info helps you out.


Cheers!
