Transferring to a New iPhone:


A. Use Quick Start:

To perform the transfer, Quick Start is the app to use. Go here: Use Quick Start to Transfer Data to a New iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


B. Verify Compatibility:

Look up the app. Make sure it is compatible with your iOS version or iPhone model. If not, then the Developer has yet to make this work with this iOS and/or iPhone.
