iPhone 11 Pro Setup as New

[circatee]

This feeling is weird. I was having an issue with YouTube, on my iPad Pro, with a Smart Keyboard Folio.
To solve the issue, I had to reset the iPad to factory. And, I even set it up as new; thus installing all the apps, and such.

After doing this, I felt the iPad had a 'new feel' to it. Now I am seriously considering resetting my iPhone to factory and setting up as new.

Alas, doing that with the iPhone, will probably take quite some time.
Hmm, decisions, decisions...

Ah, that fresh feeling ... 🌺

I just finished factory restoring every Apple device I own because I'm insane.

Gonna do my wife's stuff (only 3 things thankfully) once she gets the iPhone 12.

I have to say a lot of the minor annoyance bugs I'd come across don't happen as much anymore. I've noticed the inter-device cloud tasks like handoff are more reliable as well.

I only do it when my phone is messed up severely (only has happened once) or when I get a new device. It does clean up things in the system and fixes small issues as well as major ones. Just a hassle so unless it's totally necessary I avoid it

Sometimes I just impulsively feel the need to overhaul my app layout, change your wallpapers, etc. etc. I am still on an iPhone 7 so that trick has come in handy a bunch when I feel like I'm using an old phone.

iOS 14 was a lifesaver in that respect. All the widgets made me completely re-orient my phone to the point where it truly feels new. I'm probably going to end up delaying upgrading by another year now and wait for more substantial improvements in the 2021 models.
