Any information that you synced with iCloud will be available to you when you set up iCloud on your new device. If you restored from a backup, anything you kept would also appear on your new device.


Settings > Apple ID > iCloud

Download All of iCloud:

You can get what is in the iCloud Drive by downloading it. Whatever is in there will download, as long as you have enough available storage to download it all to. So, use an external hard drive that is at least the storage capacity of your iCloud Drive. Perform my User Tip: Getting a Quick and Direct "iCloud Drive-to-External Hard Drive" Download - User Tip
