Do you have an iphone 7? this is the first thing you should do

This is the first thing you should do with your iPhone 7

Make a backup and restore it to the new phone

If you had an iPhone phone before buying your brand new iPhone 7, the first recommended option is to make a backup of all the information you have on that phone to pass it to your new iPhone 7. While you can back up to the cloud with iCloud, the easiest method is to do it with iTunes.

By connecting your phone to the Mac, you can back it up with iTunes. After we made that backup, we connected the new iPhone 7 and we selected to restore the backup that we made.

Finish setup

The next step will be to finish the configuration process. Enter your iCloud account password, along with a second security code if you use dual authentication. In this way iCloud will already be linked to your phone.

Set up Touch ID and Apple Pay

Touch ID allows us to lock and unlock the phone by reading fingerprints. It is also possible to confirm credit card payments using this same method. If you trust someone else to use your phone, you can also add their fingerprints by going to Settings - Access code (Passcode in English).

Updating your applications

It is always important to update the applications you have installed to the latest version available, to take full advantage of the benefits of iOS10. You can indicate that they are automatically downloaded in Settings> iTunes and App Stores> Automatic Downloads

Associate Apple Watch

If you use an Apple watch, it needs to be paired with the new phone. First you have to unlink the clock from your old iPhone, for this we can do it from the phone application or on the clock itself, in Settings - General - Reset. The next time you run Apple Watch from your phone, you'll be guided through a series of easy steps to sync.

Try the new camera

The new 12-megapixel iPhone camera is one of the most important features you have to try once your phone is functional. This camera greatly improves low-light shots and in high-light environments. For the iPhone 7 Plus, the bokeh effect of blurry backgrounds will arrive at the end of the year with a free update.

Edit a Live Photo

Live Photos were first introduced on the iPhone 6s and are one and a half second motion captures. With iOS10 you can now edit these photos live, crop, add a filter, adjust colors and lighting.

Add widgets to the lock screen

Apple removed the possibility of unlocking the phone by sliding (by default) but now it is possible to swipe to the right to see the widgets with information about the date, the calendar, about your physical activity, etc. In this section you can add the widgets you want by scrolling to the bottom of the screen and touching the Edit button.
