Since I’m doing in-store pickup on Friday with trade-in, I forgot if we can turn our phones later or do we have to do it on the day of? I think they give you x amount of days to come back to turn your phone in right?
Got a tip for us?

If the old phone has a newer iOS build than the new phone, it will update the new phone first before migrating.
Caveat, the update doesn't always install properly. With some updates, the new phone would just be perpetually stuck updating.
my current plan is to restore an encrypted backup on my MBP to the new phone. I’ll update a full backup before heading to the Apple Store to pick up the new one.
When i plug the new phone into the Mac and view it in the Finder it checks for an update, and then installs it, then i’ll choose the backup to restore.
You have 14 days to turn it in following pickup.
I need my old phone following migration to verify MFAs, so I'm gonna just go back to the store once I'm sure it's all good.
to track we go to ups.com select tracking my reference number, put your order number minus the last 2 digits, enter destination country and zip code?
I think a lot of people have tried this and it’s not working this year.
Via Mac/PC should be no issue.
It’s the phone-to-phone transfers that have occasional hiccups.
Still can’t track UPS reference number.
Shocked people haven’t emailed Timmy regarding the lack of tracking information about their order.
I did. Reply was, it’s ready when it’s ready.🤷♂️
Shocked you just can't let it go.
I am serious. I mean, you are loyal, long time, early Apple adopters and are absolutely entitled to frequent and timely updates. You don’t agree?
Tracking meticulously every step of an iphones movement progress down to figuring out which plane its on etc is psychotic behavior and you cannot change my mind.
I’m guessing there was an issue on their end, my delivery date has since updated to 9/19.
I just wish I would get charged, tired of being on the processing stage.
No tracking info yet here, either. Status still shows Order in Progress with a launch day delivery date.
My shipment (Apple.com) just shows up in UPS MyChoice. Shipping from Lebanon, TN.

It’s coming from AI in Lebanon, TN, so the phones are definitely already in the States.
