Of all the things related to the phone, backing up and transferring data from the old phone to the new one is always the most complicated and headache. So how to transfer all data from an old Android phone to a brand new iPhone? All we need to transfer here is a contact list, email address, photos and videos… in the article below, let’s TipsMake.com refer to the simplest way to do this. !
As we all know, Apple has available 1 “official” application that allows users to transfer data via wireless network – wifi from Android phone to iPhone, that is Move To iOS. For details on how to use Move To iOS, please refer to here.
With this, you can easily do it on your Mac OS X or Windows computer through an application that supports iTunes. All you need to do is drag and drop photos and videos from Android to iPhone via iTunes. Note the location of the function menus on iTunes, lest you make a mistake.
Another solution that can be referred to here is to use the SHAREit service. Link to download SHAREit:
Connect both Android and iOS phones to the same Wifi network, install SHAREit, choose which photos and videos to transfer from Android, select the destination on your iPhone and press the Send button. All we need to do is sit and wait.
When done, on your iPhone you’ll see the newly transferred photos and videos appear in the Camera Roll section of Photos.
Sounds strange right? Because with the SHAREit application, it is possible to transfer everything from Android to iPhone, but in fact, when the transfer is complete, the music and music part is not displayed in the Music application on iPhone. So, to fix it, you need to use iTunes to sync, which can be run on Windows or Mac computers.
First, connect your Android phone to your computer (and on Mac, use Android File Transfer), then drag and drop music files into iTunes. Next, connect the phone to the computer, turn on the sync feature. Go to the Music section and turn on all the music sync options.
Technically, the Videos app on iPhone can’t open encoded or recorded MP4 video files on Android, but the VLC app for iOS does. And actually there is no way to switch from VLC Android to VLC iOS.
So, first copy the movie files from Android to your Windows, Mac computer (using Android File Transfer), then open the VLC application on iOS. Select the menu on the left and click Sharing via WiFi. Note that please connect both your Android phone and iPhone to the same wifi network, then open a browser on Mac OS or Windows, enter the address – the URL that VLC shows you, add the movie files to transfer, then Wait for this syncing process to complete and transfer to iPhone or iPad via wifi.
