    So I'm moving back to Apple after about 6 years on Android.

    Can I set up an new Apple ID with the same phone number as before? Reason is my storage was/is full on my original account. Is like to start fresh if possible.

    Secondly are there any good apps to transfer contacts etc from the Android across?

    Cheers

    Try this app from Apple itself: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201196

    thanks, got sorted eventually. Set up a new email address and set up iCloud account from that. I thought there would be a snag using the same phone number as before but there wasn’t.

    contacts were easy copied once signed into Google. Got the 13 delighted with it so far

    Having gotten an iPhone from work recently, I was amazed to find the App Store recommending their preferred app above the app that I actually searched for. Awfully intrusive.
