New phone or laptop? I’ll set it up
Got a new phone, tablet or laptop, or giving one for Christmas? I’ll move everything across and get it ready to use.
Setting up a new device can take an evening, and it’s easy to lose photos or WhatsApp chats along the way. I’ll do it for you, check everything has come across, and show you anything that’s changed.
What I can do
- Move your photos, contacts, messages and apps from your old device, including WhatsApp chats where the phones support it
- Set up your email, Apple or Google account, and backups so you’re protected from day one
- Turn on Find My, a screen lock and 2-step verification on your important accounts
- Move files and programs to a new laptop, and set up your printer and Wi-Fi
- Securely wipe your old device so it’s ready to sell, give away or recycle

Giving a device as a present?
Moving data needs the old and new devices together, so it’s usually easiest to book a setup for after the big day. Get in touch with what you’re buying and I’ll suggest the best way to do it.
Before I start
- Know your Apple ID or Google account password
- Keep the old device charged
- Back up your old phone if you can
- Have your Wi-Fi password to hand for home visits
