Gifting my iPhone 11 pro max

Gifting my iPhone 11 pro max to a family member; How do I transfer her my Applecare+ with the device included? She’s 80 year old and doesn’t know much of tech so I want to keep the phone ensured. Or can she add her own with her account? I’ve had this phone since its release. Any advice helps. Thank you!

Are you paying for AppleCare on a monthly basis or did you pay for the coverage upfront? iPhone 11 was discontinued in November 2023, so if you paid up front, there really won't be much plan coverage left in the first place. Here is a link which explains how to transfer AppleCare to a new owner --> Transfer your AppleCare plan - Apple Support


Also, prepare the phone properly for a new user, by following the directions in this link --> What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
