Check iCloud restore progress

[kieran9810]

I'm setting up my iPhone 6 from an iCloud backup from my 5, just wondering is there a way to check how much has restored/how long is left?

Can you still use the phone while it is backing up? Sorry this doesn't answer your question.

Yes you can. Mine just says 'restoring from iCloud backup' on the lock screen.

Any answers?

All of the pending apps will be shadowed, indicating that they are yet to be installed from restore. Restore time varies based on size of restore file
