[br][br]Moving data from old to new Android[br][br]If both your new and old phone run Android, migrating data would be easy.[br][br]Just select the option to bring data and tap on 'A Backup from an Android Phone' while setting up the new device.[br][br]After this, follow the instructions to launch the data migration setup on the old device, which would move your Google account with backed up data via Bluetooth.[br][br]What you'll have to do on the old phone[br][br]On the old phone, you'll have to launch the Google app and search for 'Setup my device'. This would launch a wizard which would scan for the new device via Bluetooth, verify the connection (with name, numbers, shapes), and then copy all backed up data.[br][br]iPhone to Android[br][br]

[br][br]Moving data from iPhone to Android[br][br]For moving data from iOS to Android, select "an iphone device" option while setting up the new phone.[br][br]Then, head to your old device (iPhone/iPad) and visit android.com/switch or Apple Store to download Google Drive.[br][br]Now, backup everything on Drive, including your contacts, photos, and videos, from its settings and sign in with the same account to get that data on the new device.[br][br]Also, turn iMessage off[br][br]Also, do note that you'd have to turn iMessage and FaceTime off before ditching the old device and inserting its SIM into a new Android smartphone.[br][br]iPhone to iPhone[br][br]

[br][br]Moving data from old to new iPhone[br][br]First, you'll have to place your new iPhone next to the old one to get a prompt for setting up the former.[br][br]The new device will generate a pattern, which would have to be scanned from older model to pair the two devices.[br][br]Now, the old phone will continue the setup and migrate your iCloud, allowing you to restore data on the new device.[br][br]Android to iPhone[br][br]

[br][br]Moving data from Android to iPhone[br][br]For moving data from Android to iOS, start with the regular iOS setup process on the new device and tap on 'Set Up Manually'.[br][br]Then, set up Wi-Fi and biometrics and tap on 'Move Data from Android' to get a six/ten digit code.[br][br]Now, download the 'Move to iOS' app on your old Android and enter the code from iPhone for instant data transfer.[br][br]'Move to iOS' will prompt you to select data type[br][br]When you'll enter the code, 'Move to iOS' will ask you to choose what data you'd want to move. Just select everything and hit 'Next' to start the transfer. Also, after completing the setup, iOS will prompt you to get iOS version of old apps.[br] -----------------------------------[br]Stay tuned for more interesting informations.[br][br]Till then,[br][br]Keep Infinixing for latest and best quality informations.
