Q: “Just got my iPhone 6s for days. Well, there is a problem troubled me for days: how can I transfer all the contacts from my old iPhone to new iPhone 6s. Any help would be appreciated.”

As the above new iPhone 6s user, you may have a confusion how to get contacts from old iPhone to iPhone 6s. In this article, we’d like to share the possible solutions to help you transfer contacts to iPhone 6s from old iPhone easily and quickly.

Solution 1: Transfer Contacts from Old iPhone to iPhone 6s with iCloud

This is by far the easiest method and it doesn’t require a PC or Mac, but it relies on having iCloud set up on the original device.

1. Back up the old iPhone manually with iCloud by opening “Settings, tap “iCloud”, navigate to bottom and tap on “Storage & Backup”, then tap “Back Up Now”
2. Boot the iPhone 6s and walk through the easy setup, choose either “Restore from iCloud Backup”.
3. Wait until the new iPhone restores from your old iPhone backup, this can take a while depending on the size of your backup, how much stuff you have on the iPhones, and the speed of your internet connection
4. When finished, your new iPhone 6S will have everything from the old iPhone and you’re ready to go!

Note: This method would restore the whole data from old iPhone to your iPhone 6s.

Solution 2: Migrating an old iPhone to iPhone 6s with iTunes

If you don’t have iCloud set up or you have a slower internet connection, jump to the iTunes method below instead. You’ll need a Mac or PC though, so it’s not quite as automated as the aforementioned iCloud method, but it’s still extremely simple and it may even be faster for some users who have slower broadband connections.

1. Back up the older iPhone with iTunes by connecting it to the Mac/PC via USB, launching iTunes, then right-click on the iPhone in the iTunes sidebar and choose Back Up
2. Wait for the backup to finish, then disconnect the old iPhone from the computer
3. Now turn on the new iPhone, and at the “Set Up iPhone” screen, select “Restore from iTunes Backup”, tap Next, then connect the new iPhone 6s to the computer
4. Select the most recent backup you just made from the restore menu in iTunes, then click “Continue”.
5. Wait, and when the transfer is finished the iPhone will reboot itself and everything from the old iPhone will be on the new one and ready to go

Note: Like the above method, in this way, it would also restore the whole data from old iPhone to your iPhone 6s. You can just transfer certain files like contacts from old iPhone to new one.
