Move from Android to iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Ready to transfer to iOS? Download the Move to iOS app to get help switching from your Android device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

If you can’t use the Google Play Store, learn how to download Move to iOS.

Before you begin

• On your Android device, make sure that Wi-Fi is turned on.
• Plug your new iOS device and your Android device into power.
• Make sure that the content you’re moving, including what’s on your external Micro SD card, will fit on your new iOS device
• If you want to transfer your Chrome bookmarks, update to the latest version of Chrome on your Android device.

Tap Move Data from Android

While you set up your new iOS device, look for the Apps & Data screen. Then tap Move Data from Android. (If you already finished setup, you need to erase your iOS device and start over. If you don’t want to erase, just transfer your content manually.)

Open the Move to iOS app

On your Android device, open the Move to iOS app. If you don’t have the Move to iOS app, you can tap the QR code button on your new iOS device and scan the QR code using the camera on your Android device to open the Google Play Store. Tap Continue, and read the terms and conditions that appear. To continue, tap Agree.

Wait for a code

On your iOS device, tap Continue when you see the Move from Android screen. Then wait for a ten-digit or six-digit code to appear. If your Android device shows an alert that you have a weak internet connection, you can ignore the alert.

Use the code

Enter the code on your Android device.

Connect to a temporary Wi-Fi network

Your iOS device will create a temporary Wi-Fi network. When asked, tap Connect to join that network on your Android device. Then wait for the Transfer Data screen to appear.

Choose your content and wait

On your Android device, select the content that you want to transfer and tap Continue. Then—even if your Android device shows that the process is complete—leave both devices alone until the loading bar that appears on your iOS device finishes. The whole transfer can take a while, depending on how much content you’re moving.

Here’s what gets transferred: contacts, message history, camera photos and videos, photo albums, files and folders, accessibility settings, display settings, web bookmarks, mail accounts, and calendars. If they’re available on both Google Play and the App Store, some of your free apps will also transfer. After the transfer completes, you can download any free apps that were matched from the App Store.

Set up your iOS device

After the loading bar finishes on your iOS device, tap Done on your Android device. Then tap Continue on your iOS device and follow the onscreen steps to finish setup for your iOS device.

Finish up

Make sure that all of your content transferred. Music, books, and PDFs need to be moved over manually.

Need to get the apps that were on your Android device? Go to the App Store on your iOS device to download them.

If you need help with the transfer

• Make sure that you leave both devices alone until the transfer finishes. For example, on your Android device, the Move to iOS app should stay onscreen the whole time. If you use another app or get a phone call on your Android before the transfer finishes, your content won’t transfer.
• On your Android device, turn off apps or settings that might affect your Wi-Fi connection, like the Sprint Connections Optimizer or the Smart Network Switch. Then find Wi-Fi in Settings, touch and hold each known network, and forget the network. Then try the transfer again.
• Restart both of your devices and try again.
• On your Android device, turn off your cellular data connection. Then try the transfer again.

If you need help after the transfer

• Get help if Messages doesn’t work as expected after you transfer your content.
• If you don’t see apps from your Android device on your new iOS device, find and download them in the App Store on your new device.
• You might find that only some content transferred and your iOS device ran out of space, or your iOS device might appear full even though the transfer didn’t finish. If so, erase your iOS device and start the transfer again. Make sure that your Android content doesn’t exceed the available space on your iOS device.

Ratings and Reviews

Love it, but.

I have been waiting for an App like this one since the first Apple Watch. I was super excited when I found it and immediately got the paid version. Only problem (a big one for me) is that every time I restart my iPhone or my watch, the app does not start automatically and I don’t always remember to manually turn it on. So I’m still forgetting my iPhone at home or in the car. Disappointing but I’m sure developers will do something about that.
Update: one year later last week I downloaded this app again and it finally works well, the down fall is that it’s draining my battery! 🙄

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the feedback. We are aware of this limitation and will continue to try to find a solution that will allow Phone Buddy to re-start without user input after a system shutdown. At this time we don’t have technical path forward to achieve this result but we are always trying new things and with each new OS updates Apple provides new functionality that may enable this use case sometime down the line. Thanks again for the feedback and we’d love to get this working sometime soon.

Was good, now it’s AWFUL!

I’ve had this app for several version of the iPhone and Apple Watch and the first iterations of this app worked fine, without false alarms but after recently updating this app and being pleasantly surprised by all the great additions to the functionality of this app I was impressed. THAT WAS SHORT LIVED. This app is horrendous with false alarms, no matter how much I tinker with the distance and time setting it’s constantly going off. With me working in the medical field with patient care, it’s very rude and startling to patients and family members having loud and obnoxious fire alarm sounding alerts randomly blaring out of your phone and watch, even when both your phone and watch are on your person. I’ve even went as far as completely shutting down the application when I need it the most but the application is still making my phone alarm randomly. I’m super disappointed in this application now and I feel I have no choice but to remove it completely from my phone.

Developer Response ,

Hello RawDawgRagland, I’m very sorry to learn about your experience using Phone Buddy. There are settings I’d recommend that may mediate some of the issues, for example, you can disable the «Loud Alarm» setting so Phone Buddy uses default notification sounds or vibration when posting alerts. We have also updated a few advanced settings that may help reduce false alerts due to temporary interruptions, such as the Sure Alert setting on the Phone Lost Alert custom settings page on Apple Watch. By the way, Bluetooth shares a spectrum with many wireless devices and as such environmental interference makes 100% accuracy difficult. If you’ve introduced a new wireless device in home or car and that correlates with the decreasing quality of service please let me know. We are happy to chat further at support@fre-studios.com.

Too often receive lost phone alert with phone next to watch

I did all I could with configuration- set distance far and increased time. I also set to not alert on home WiFi. No joy. I still get random alerts for no apparent reason. I guess I need to be a big boy and remember my phone because this app gives too many false alerts to be useful. 🙁

The developer suggested that I may be having problems in my environment with distance and simply use lost phone alerts instead. I had the issue with the phone and watch being within inches of each other. Unless my body generates a field that could through their process off, I don’t see what environment is interfering; it’s not like there are walls to go through or metal objects in the way. This issue didn’t just happen at home. BTW — iPhone 12 Pro and Watch Series 6, so this isn’t an issue with older hardware. Downgraded the review to 1; reminds me a bit of the iPhone — you’re not holding it right but worse.
