New phone, restore or start fresh?
Discussion
After a long deliberation about leaving Apple. I decided to stick with them and picked up a 128gb XR yesterday.
Ultimately it came down to 'Screen Time', my daughter now has an iPhone that was handed down to her, and the features of Screen Time are enough to make sticking with Apple worth it in my eyes.
I also managed to get the XR, with 30gb data allowance for the same price I was currently paying (£44 a month), so can't argue with that.
Biggest disappointment is the lack of 3D touch, which I had learnt to love and was key in quite a lot of my workflows, although I'm sure I'll find other workarounds.
ANYWAY, as per the title…
I normally just restore my iPhone from previous and carry on as normal, probably done this for the last 3 or 4 handsets. This time I feel like I might start from scratch and manually set everything up again, figured a fresh start couldn't be a bad thing.
Am I right in saying this would be better than just dragging years and years of cached files and data over from my old handset? I know it will take a bit longer but I'm not too bothered about that.
