Use these steps to transfer information to your new device and, if applicable, remove your personal information from your old device.
Before you sell, give away, or trade in your device, you should first transfer information to your new device, then, if applicable, remove your personal information from your old device.
If you're trading in your iPhone at an Apple Store, you might need your Apple ID password. To save time, make sure you know your password (or reset it to a password you know) before you come to the store.
If you have Stolen Device Protection enabled on your iPhone, changing your password at the store is likely to have a one hour security delay.
If the steps above weren't completed and you no longer have your device, use these steps:
1.Ask the new owner to erase all content and settings using the above steps.
2.If you're using iCloud and Find My [device] on the device, sign in to iCloud.com/find or the Find My app on another device, select the device, and click Erase. After the device has been erased, click Remove from Account.
3.If you can't follow either of the above steps, change your Apple ID password. This won't remove personal information that's stored on your old device, but it prevents the new owner from deleting your information from iCloud.
4.If you're switching to a non-Apple phone, deregister iMessage.
5.If you're using Apple Pay, you can remove your credit or debit cards at iCloud.com. Choose Account Settings to see which devices are using Apple Pay, then click the device. Next to Apple Pay, click Remove.
