Command to Track Progress of iPhone's Restoration

The below comes in handy, since Finder on MacOS Catalina (10.15.6) does not show iPhone's restoration progress:

  1. Open Terminal from Application in Finder or via typing "Terminal" in Spotlight (hotkey: cmd + space)

  2. Copy and paste the following command, dollar sign ($) excluded, to Terminal then hit the return/enter key

    $ log stream \
--info \
--signpost \
--style compact \
--predicate 'senderImagePath contains[cd] "AMPDevicesAgent"'

  3. Restore the iPhone from backup and monitor the progress from Terminal B-)
