Switch To Android

Install

Google quietly launched the Switch to Android app on the App Store in a number of global markets, including the U.S. As expected, the app promises to make the transition between mobile platforms easier to manage by helping users import their contacts, calendar, photos, and videos to their new Android phone.

The app also instructs users how to turn off Apple’s iMessage in order to get text messages on their new device and has them connect with iCloud to migrate their photo and video library to Android.

Switch To Android

The Switch to Android app from Google helps you quickly and securely move your most important data types – photos, videos, contacts, and calendar events – to a brand new Android device without fussy cables.

The app also walks you through other important steps to setting up your device, like turning off iMessage so you don’t miss text messages from friends and family.

The app will ask you for a series of permissions so that your iPhone’s data can be moved to your Android device.
