Apple's upcoming iOS 27.2 update will introduce a system-managed migration flow that lets developers move a user's data and settings from a discontinued app to its official replacement before deleting the old one. Code found in the first beta shows users will be prompted with an alert offering to 'Move App Data and Settings' or 'Don't Move Anything,' with a follow-up warning if they decline.

Ahead of installing an iOS public beta, users are advised to make a computer-based backup rather than relying on iCloud, since iCloud automatically overwrites backups with newer beta versions.
