App summary

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 content data for you:

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

Make sure to 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 running 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.

Exceeded my expectations I hesitated to try this based on bad reviews, but thought it wouldn't hurt to try. Has bad conversion from S6 to Iphone 6 many years ago, but this time no issues S9 to IPhone 13,. I followed the tip to keep the IPhone awake. Thought it dropped some contacts, but was a sort order setting. Still verifying what was missed but guessing those items were on my SD card. This app made a very painful process so much easier. Hate new phone setups. Couldn't have asked for more 🙂❤

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.

This app is riddled with bugs that seem to be affecting every device. The calculation for estimating time can take an inappropriate amount of time, or never even progress. The estimated time to completion is very inaccurate and changes inconsistently. There is a bug where the transfer gets stuck at 1 minute on the apple device. Apparently all of these bugs have been around a really long time and haven't been fixed. The app is also somewhat slow, the transfer is crawling at best.
