How to Transfer Data From Android to iPhone

August 5, 2026 ยท 1 min read

Apple’s Move to iOS app, installed on the Android device before setup, transfers contacts, photos, calendars and message history directly during the new iPhone’s initial setup process.

Cloud-based accounts like Google Photos or email can be added separately afterward, which covers most data that Move to iOS doesn’t handle directly, such as app-specific data.

Keeping the Android phone charged and on the same Wi-Fi network during the transfer avoids the most common cause of an interrupted or incomplete transfer.
