When I set up my new iPhone 15 with phone to phone data transfer, my old phone then presented a new phone "Hello" screen. Did my old phone data get erased?
iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17
Absolutely it does automatically wipe now.
This used to not happen but I just upgraded my daughters iphone 12 pro max to the iphone 15 pro max and after the data transfer the old phone rebooted to the hello screen and was empty.
I prefer the old way where I had time to ensure all my stuff transferred and I choose whether to wipe my phone or not
No it doesn't, you will get a reminder in the 'old' iPhone that asks you if you want to erase and transfer the iPhone, you can opt out. You can easily check if it's been erased if it has been means you somehow tapped on the reminder like saying ok
No.
does old iPhone erase data after transfer to new iPhone automatically?
