Upgrading your iPhone tip.
Just an FYI for anyone changing phones. I got a new iPhone 14 yesterday.
When I got home and started the transfer process from my old iPhone it kept hanging and just sat at installing IOS 17, then at the transfer screen too.
What eventually worked was to update the IOS and then set up the phone without moving the info from the old phone. Then I reset the phone with IOS17 installed then proceeded with the transfer from my old phone.
That worked fine. Wasted several hours trying to do it the other way!
Hope that info helps save a bunch of time for someone.

I'm old enough to remember when Plastic bags were the solution to the destruction of trees!
