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

How ironic that the top most relevant review is just an irrelevant word salad that has nothing to do with the app? Dude, did the app work for you or not? Did you use a 3.0 USB-C cable or Wi-Fi? Anyway, this app is a massive failure. Most of us just want a simple method to transfer photos, contacts, and messages to an iPhone. This app simply does not allow anyone to do this with an app that has a 99% failure rate. Remove this garbage from the app store.

This app is garbage. I have done every bit of troubleshooting but it keeps getting stuck at 1 minute left (for 7+hours) until I give up, cancel it, and try again. My WiFi connection is absolutely not the problem, nor is the amount of data being transferred, yet here we are. This is my first iPhone ever and this nightmare of a transfer process has made me seriously question my decision to switch to iOS.

This app is the single worst app I've ever had the misfortune of experiencing in my life. A relatively simple concept, you'd think that between the two multi-billion dollar company's that are responsible for it, it might be somewhat capable of doing the job it it supposed to. Instead, I'm here 9 hours and 7 failed transfers later wondering how I'm supposed to do anything with a phone line that can't text, call, or use cellular networks. Thanks for confirming my fears about switching to an IPhone
