Step 1: Download Move to iOS app on your Android device
The first thing you need to do is download the Move to iOS app on your Android device. This app will help you transfer your data wirelessly to your iPhone. You can find it on the Google Play Store or scan the QR code below.
Step 2: Set up your iPhone and choose Move Data from Android option
Next, you need to set up your iPhone as a new device. Follow the on-screen instructions until you reach the Apps & Data screen. Here, you'll see four options:
- Restore from iCloud Backup
- Restore from Mac or PC
- Transfer Directly from iPhone
- Move Data from Android
Choose the last option and tap Continue.
Step 3: Enter the code on your Android device and select the data you want to transfer
On your iPhone, you'll see a screen with a 10-digit code. Enter this code on your Android device in the Move to iOS app. This will establish a connection between the two devices.
Once connected, you'll see a list of data types that you can transfer from your Android device to your iPhone. These include:
- Contacts
- Message history
- Camera photos and videos
- Web bookmarks
- Mail accounts
- Calendars
You can select all or some of the data types depending on your preference. Tap Next when you're ready.
Step 4: Wait for the transfer to complete and set up the rest of your iPhone
Now, all you have to do is wait for the transfer to complete. This may take some time depending on the amount of data you have and the speed of your Wi-Fi network. Do not turn off or disconnect either device until the transfer is done.
When the transfer is finished, you'll see a confirmation message on both devices. Tap Done on your Android device and Continue on your iPhone. You can now set up the rest of your iPhone, such as Face ID, Apple ID, Siri and more.
Step 5: Download any apps that are compatible with iOS
One thing that the Move to iOS app cannot transfer is your apps. However, it will create a list of apps that are available on the App Store that match the ones you had on your Android device. You can find this list in the App Store under your account icon.
You can download any apps that are compatible with iOS from this list. You may need to sign in or create new accounts for some of them. You may also need to purchase some apps that are not free on iOS.
