I just got a iPhone 16e and did the data transfer from iPhone 11. I did the transfer where you take a pic of the screen on the new phone and it starts transfer. The new phone is now setup and live w/ the eSim but non of the messages came over in the portal, also missing photos, etc. How do I get all my data to port over?

Transferring to a New iPhone:
Use Quick Start:
Quick Start is a service provided by Apple for transferring to a new iPhone. So, Factory Reset your new iPhone, and then perform the Quick Start.
That was QuickStart.
If any of the photos had been sync'd to the phone from a computer they will need to be syncd again. Any third party photos apps, eg Google?
Messages? iMessages or Whatsapp or what kind?
