Retrieving data from broken phone

I have a broken screen on an iPhone X so I got an iPhone 13, now I need help with getting my data from the X to the 13 and I did not back up my iPhone X at all.

iPhone X, iOS 16

It's too late to worry about losing data which has not been backed up after your iPhone is broken. Backups need to happen before your phone is broken.


The only option you have is to sign into the new iPhone using the same Apple ID as you used on the now broken phone and hope you synced with iCloud. If you did, you can at least turn the switches on for some things on the new phone, which if synced with iCloud will download to the new phone. If you didn't sync with iCloud, you're going to have to start all over on the new phone.
