Hello, generally speaking, you can use the iTunes or google to sync your messages between two iPhones if you got a backup provious, but I recomment you to use the more simple, reliable and better ways, that is using the Phone to Phone Transfer tool, it can not only transfer your data between iDevices, such as iPhone to iPhone, iPad to iPhone and so on, but also can backup your iPhone Data to PC, and erase all data from iPhone before reselling.

You can read more from:

Phone to Phone Transfer can transfer text messages, photos, videos, contacts, apps, music and more from iPhone to iPhone with a click, as well as iPad and iPod.



Hope this tutorial can give you a help.

As far as I know, you can use FonePaw iOS Transfer to transfer text messages to computer. But they can't be imported to your new device. If those text messages are so important, you can print them out rather than transfer them to your new iPhone.

If you want to transfer your data between two iPhones ,you must need to use a Professional software.

The iPhone iPad iPod Manager tool makes the transfer of videos, music, photos, playlists, contacts and so on from your iPhone, iPad and iPod to another Phone, iPad and iPod as easy as pie.

The best way to do this is through icloud. Enable icloud on old phone and manually back up. Reset new phone to factory settings and on welcome walk through choose "restore from iCould backup" this puts your voicemails, texts, contacts, apps, settings, etc. on to your new device.

Or you may read the guide below to transfer data from phone to phone with just one click:

1. Enable iCloud backup on your old iPhone. Tap "Settings," and "iCloud," followed by "Storage & Backup." Tap the slider next to iCloud Backup to the "On" position to enable iCloud backup. Tap "OK" on the pop-up window informing you that your iPhone will use iCloud and not iTunes for backups.

2. Tap "Back Up Now" and wait for your old iPhone to back up to iCloud.

3. Turn off your old iPhone after the back up to iCloud is complete.

4. Turn on your new iPhone and follow the activation steps. Ensure you have access to a Wi-Fi connection, which is required for activating your new phone.

5. Select "Restore from iCloud Backup" during the Setup Assistant procedure on your new iPhone.

6. Enter any passwords for accounts if you are prompted during setup to do so.

7. Tap "Settings," "iCloud" and then "Storage & Backup" to check the progress of the restore from your old iPhone backup on iCloud.

8. Tap the "Messages" icon on the home screen after the backup is restored and your old iPhone text message history should be restored on your new iPhone.

Back up your old one to iTunes and when you set up your new one, choose to restore from the old back up and all texts, emails, photos will be there too.
