How much time can a restore in progress take?

Hello raflynch,

Thanks for your post to Apple Support Communities. We understand your new iPhone 14 seems to be stuck restoring from iCloud. Generally, it shouldn't take 2 full days for a restore to complete, so this is unusual. We will note that restore speed can depend on the network your device is connected to. Just something to keep in mind.

If restore from iCloud backup failed - Apple Support

1. Go ahead and restart your iPhone.
2. Make sure your iPhone is plugged in to power and has a stable Wi-Fi network connection.
3. If you have access to another Wi-Fi network, connect to that and try restoring again.

If it still gets stuck, or you get an error message, our next recommended step would be to reach out to our support teams directly. You can reach them here:
