Hello Diamond1949
The only way to get the settings from a previous iPhone is to back it up in iTunes or iCloud. Once they are backed up, then you can restore the back up on your new iPhone. When you do that you will loose whatever you have on your current iPhone and will be replaced with the information that was on the previous one.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
