Your new iPhone would have been added automatically, when you first signed in to your Apple ID on that iPhone.

Your old iPhone would likely remain there until you remove it.


If you need to ensure you remove the correct iPhone:

Find the serial number or IMEI on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Learn which devices appear in your Apple ID device list,

how to see your device's details, and how to remove a device, if necessary.

Hope this helps you :-)
