Next, set a six-digit passcode to help protect your data. You need a passcode to use features like Face ID, Touch ID, and Apple Pay. If you'd like a four-digit passcode, custom passcode, or no passcode, tap 'Passcode Options.'

Restore or transfer your information and data

If you have an iCloud or iTunes backup, or an Android device, you can restore or transfer your data from your old device to your new device.

If you don't have a backup or another device, select Don't Transfer Apps & Data.

Sign in with your Apple ID

Enter your Apple ID and password, or tap 'Forgot password or don't have an Apple ID?' From there, you can recover your Apple ID or password, create an Apple ID, or set it up later. If you use more than one Apple ID, tap 'Use different Apple IDs for iCloud and iTunes?'
