Transfer Data by Restoring iCloud Backup to iPhone 8

With the advent of cloud storage, Apple activated a file saving and recovery system in iCloud that lets users revert to recent backup files without first connecting to a host computer. To restore iCloud backup to iPhone 8, a viable backup needs to be available in iCloud.

You can begin the process of setting up your new iPhone from an iCloud backup. This is only possible through the iOS Setup Assistant, which is only available during the initial set up.

(1) Complete the initial steps in iOS Setup Assistant for language, country and so forth.

(2) Make sure to check Restore from iCloud Backup from the setup menu.

(3) Sign into the same Apple ID that you stored your iCloud backup on.

(4) Simply tap on the desired backup from the list to restore your iPhone.

(5) The new iPhone 8 will begin restoring all data, such as apps, contacts, music and so forth. This can sometimes be a lengthy process that takes 20 minutes or longer, so you need to make sure your iPhone 8 is always plugged in.



If you followed the steps above, you should have successfully transferred your data from the old iTunes or iCloud backup to your new iPhone. However, iTunes or iCloud can’t cover all of the cases as iTunes can only recover the entire backup and iCloud is only capable of recovering limited file types. In one word, the methods provided by Apple are inflexible. And it is the reason that third party app comes into help.
