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.

Life is easier on iPhone.

And that starts as soon as you turn it on.

For a limited time, switch to iPhone and save $100 or more when you trade in an eligible Android smartphone. *

Will it be easy to switch to iPhone?

Yes. There’s no need to save your stuff before switching from Android. Just download the Move to iOS app from the Google Play Store and it securely transfers your content for you — everything from photos and videos to contacts, messages, and Google Apps. You can even trade in your old smartphone for credit toward an iPhone. 1

Will iPhone be easy to use?

You bet. Ease of use is at the core of everything Apple creates, and iOS is designed to be both simple and intuitive. Just glance to make purchases with Apple Pay. Ask Siri to make calls or send texts when your hands are full. Or type by swiping from one letter to the next. You can always refer to the Tips app to get even more out of your device.

Why do people love the camera so much?

iPhone delivers the best camera experience in a smartphone. And the camera just keeps getting better. Portrait mode creates a depth-of-field effect so your subjects really pop. Portrait Lighting lets you choose from cool effects that make your shot more dramatic. iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro take it even further by letting you shoot the highest quality video in a smartphone. And they feature Night mode, for beautiful images in drastically lower light.

What makes iPhone so fast?

Every iPhone has an Apple‑designed chip built for performance — in fact, the latest iPhone models have the fastest chip ever in a smartphone. Because these chips are so efficient, iPhone delivers incredible battery life. It also learns from your daily charging routine to reduce battery aging. Combine all that with the latest iOS updates offering smart new features, and everything you do on iPhone feels fast and fluid.

How does iPhone help keep my personal information private?

Unlike many other phones, important data on your iPhone is encrypted from the start, then protected by your passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID. Apple apps like Maps and Safari help keep private all the places you go and sites you visit. Apple will not sell your information to anyone for any reason. And easy-to-install software updates help protect your device and your data from security threats.

What makes Messages so great?

The Messages app is simple, powerful, and more expressive than ever. You can become an Animoji. Create your own Memoji to match your personality and mood. Hail rides. Shoot lasers. And even send and receive money with Apple Pay. All your conversations are private, because every message is encrypted end-to-end. And you can use other apps like WeChat, WhatsApp, or Facebook Messenger, too.

What makes the App Store better?

We have a team of full-time editors who are experts in the world of apps. They curate millions of apps and games to make it easy for you to find your new favorites. They give new apps a test drive to help make sure they do what they say they do. And they bring you must-read stories about innovative developers and app culture. We also require apps to ask your permission if they want to access your personal information.

What about the environment?

Every time we create a product or service, we think about how to lessen its impact on the planet. For instance, iPhone is assembled without generating landfill waste. The solder in the main logic board is made with 100 percent recycled tin, and more than 40 components in iPhone X S , iPhone X S Max, and iPhone X R contain recycled plastic. When you switch to iPhone, we’ll even recycle your Android for you.

Can I get help from a real person?

Yes. No matter where you are, we have real human beings ready to help. Want to know more about switching? Or about software on your new iPhone? Apple’s award-winning support team offers assistance of any kind. Just call a Specialist, chat online, or visit an Apple Store. There’s also an Apple Support app and Twitter handle @AppleSupport.

Can I switch at an Apple Store?

Absolutely. Apple Specialists are friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to assist you in switching. They can activate your new iPhone with a carrier of your choice 2 and help you transfer important content. You can also attend Skills sessions, which are part of the Today at Apple program, to learn how to do even more with iPhone.

Will I be glad I switched?

iPhone has always had industry-leading satisfaction rates — and they just keep getting better. In fact, 99 percent of people with an iPhone X S , iPhone X S Max, and iPhone X R say they love it. 3 That’s a lot of smiling selfies. A lot of happy emoji. A lot of people who are glad they chose the world’s most loved smartphone. And when you’re ready for your next iPhone, you can trade in your old one for credit toward a new one.
