Is it possible to transfer email account info (passwords, server address etc.) from an iPad where all that's working fine over to a brand new iPhone 11?
I was suprised to see that "Quick Start" popped up and apparently transferred something (not sure what though as I've gone through most of the default settings and changed them, so maybe I did something wrong). Anyway, the phone is up and running, but it would be great to not have to enter all the email account stuff from scratch.
 
So it only transfers iCloud settings? No wonder I didn't notice any changes to the default settings, because I don't use iCloud.
OK, I'll go ahead and set up the email server names, passwords etc. Fortunately it's just a matter of looking at the iPad settings as it's iOS too and will be the same in the same place and way to do it :)
