Issue seems never fixed. The restore taking ages

I had iCloud subscription (not using the free storage) but what I got is ages waiting for my apps to come back after setup…. I can’t see the progress and the “download priorities” never worked…. Apple, fix it.. or ask ChatGPT to help fixing your problem. From the forums I’m not the only one complaining this and it is not a new issue over the last couple of years. Come on Apple. Don’t tell me it’s my home internet issue. I’m using 100mb download internet.
