[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 742631, member: 61091"] thanks, I did a little research last night and "discovering" similar suggestions. I guess one area of confusion for me, is my old phone was backing up to apple icloud, and I generally and vaguely understand that was encrypted backup, but my authenticator app is saying it cannot restore from icloud because it was not encrypted. And some related matter, I was running iOs 11.4 on my iphone, of course I did not try every I had installed but as apps are being restored I'm getting messages that about 1/3 of my apps are no longer in the app store or do not run on iOS 11 so I guess I'm weeding out unused and less than secure apps. Appreciate your reply, I'll be playing with QR codes etc today as that's the most critical issue for me re this iphone upgrade. my son got a iphoneX and he likes it but I decided to wait it out for a year or 2 until updated version of the X along with 5G.
