If you're ready to move from an Android phone to an iOS iPhone, there's an easy way to transfer all your data to your new phone.

You can do this via Move to iOS, an Android app provided by Apple to transfer contacts, message history, website history, mail accounts, calendars, photos and videos. It will also move some of your free apps if they are available on both the Google Play and App Stores.

The app is supported on all phones running Android 4.0 or higher, and it makes it easy to move to a brand new operating system.

Transfer Data from Android to iPhone
The first step to follow is to make sure that both phones are charged while keeping them connected to electricity. Then make sure that "Wi-Fi" is activated on the Android device.

The next step is to turn on the new iPhone and put it next to the old Android phone, then follow the on-screen setup instructions on your iPhone, and when you reach the "Quick Start" screen, choose "Set up without another Apple device" and then follow the on-screen instructions.

When you go to the Transfer Your Apps & Data screen, tap on Android.

Open the Move to iOS app on your Android phone, tap Continue and agree to the terms and conditions. And tap "Continue" on your iPhone when the Android transition screen appears. You'll see a multi-digit code, enter that code on your Android phone.

The iPhone will create a temporary Wi-Fi network when prompted, so tap Connect on your Android phone to join that network, then wait for the data transfer screen to appear.

Now choose the content you want to transfer from your Android phone, then tap Continue. Leave the two phones close to each other until the iPhone has a full download bar. Note that the more content you want to transfer, the longer the time for the transfer.

Once the iPhone download bar is complete, tap "Done" on your Android phone, then tap "Continue" on your iPhone, and follow the on-screen instructions to finish setting up your new phone.
