Can I reset my iPhone 13 and keep my iCloud Files?

I want to reset my phone and start over but don’t want to lose my files and media that are stored in my Cloud. Is it true that when it’s in the cloud it’s there forever, like that one movie stated😅 ifykyk

but seriously can I just reset it and sign back in and have my stuff ?

Yes you can, as soon as you set up the phone again you sign in with your Apple account you reconnect.


Any photos or files not sync'd to iCloud will disappear. You might want to visit iPhone, Settings, [tap your name], iCloud, [show all] and ensure everything is turned on.
