Move to iOS

Apple

About this app

Everything about iOS is designed to be easy. That includes switching to it. With just a few steps, you can migrate your content automatically and securely from your Android device with the Move to iOS app. No need to save your stuff elsewhere before switching from Android. The Move to iOS app securely transfers all kinds of data for you:

Contacts
Message history
Camera photos and videos
Mail accounts
Calendars
WhatsApp content

Make sure you keep your devices nearby and connected to power until the transfer is complete. When you choose to migrate your data, your new iPhone or iPad will create a private Wi-Fi network and find your nearby Android device using Move to iOS. After you enter a security code, it will begin transferring your content and put it in the right places. Just like that. Once your content has been transferred, you’re ready to get going. That’s it — you can start using your new iPhone or iPad and experiencing its endless possibilities. Enjoy.

Ratings and reviews

It simply doesn't work. Me and my wife both moved to an iPhone 13 pro max from a Pixel 3xl and a Samsung Galaxy S9+. It doesn't work no matter what data you want to transfer, even just contacts and google account. It seems to start the process give you a time estimate based on your selected data and a few seconds later crush saying there is an error and thats it. I guess Apple just sucks at developing Android apps 🤷

I was extremely hesitant to move from a pixel phone to an iphone after I saw the mixed reviews for this app, but I figured I'd give it a shot anyway, thinking it couldn't possibly be as bad as the reviews said. But after transferring my data half of my contacts were merged into groups I lost a majority of my text messages, pictures have become a jumbled mess, and have completely wrong dates. I would strongly suggest looking into other options rather than risking your data by using this app.

Worked on my first try! All WhatsApp chats were backed up (with images) I had moved out media beforehand to decrease transfer size to 1gb. Took 1 hour to finish. Make sure your phone display timer is set to never so it's easier. Once the process starts, do not touch both phones. I kept them next to each other and only kept checking that they were awake. I first selected WhatsApp and then contacts and messages (nothing else). Exchange the sim once transfer is complete.
