Items from another device

Your items are on this device. They are encrypted, and your recovery key opens them.

In the app These items came from another iPhone. Your recovery key opens them.

What it means

The library came to this device in a device backup, from Finder, iTunes or a phone backup. The key that opens it on a device stays in the old device's chip and never moves. So this device needs your 12-word recovery key once.

What to do

  1. Tap Use recovery key.
  2. Enter your 12 words. Your library opens, and you set a code for this device.
  3. If you do not have the recovery key and the old device still works, open York Vault there and move the library with phone-to-phone transfer.
