Hi Steven, excellent video....I have a question....do you need a SIM card in both phones when moving from one to another?. I'm asking because I only have 1 SIM card (on my Android) and it's the one I'm gonna use in the iPhone. I bought the iPhone used and unlocked with no SIM card. I would appreciate if you can orient me on this.
"Now that the transfer is complete.." Jeeeezus! Great instructional. But you could have warned us that that transfer can take hooooouuuuuuurrrreeerrrs.
It depends on your WiFi, and the amount of data in your devices, I have 300mbps do it’s hard to know how long it we’ll take for viewers. I’m happy that you got thru it
Wow...that's some serious computer geekdom! Thanks for sharing, my friend. I've always been Android, so I wouldn't have to go through this exercise. But, it's good to know that the option is possible. What about the other way around? Apple to Android?
Question? Do you keep all the photos and your stuff from your apple id if you restart and re enter your apple id when transferring from android to ios and you already had things on your iphone
You have to start over and loose everything or purchase a software that manual lets you transfer to a computer something like this older video ua-cam.com/video/bJRl1VeDUTg/v-deo.html
Hi Steve, I have been following your instructions but once the devices are connected I always get the following message on the Android device "Something came up. The application has cancelled the request to choose a device" and the process stops with a " Connection Error, No IOS device detected" any suggestion? Thanks in advance
I used the Move To IOS to move my messages to my iPhone 11. But the messages were replaced when I synced my iTunes to my phone.. it replaced them with my previous messages from a two year old backup. I thought the the messages from my android phone and from my ITunes backup would merge together. I just wanted to merge the messages. Not photos as I always download photos to my hard drive on the computer. Programs like Anytrans failed to work. I really need to keep and add my android phone message to my older iPhone message. What can I do?
hey steve, i have a question about creating an apple id, can i use my email address from my android device for my apple id, or do i need to create an apple id, i use a gmail account
The best way to do it is make sure you have all of your media passwords in check and then to follow this video. The rest is kinda just copy paste. Then reset your android phone and either sell, hand down, or destroy your android phone. Do what you want
My android phone keeps saying "the transfer was interrupted do not switch to other apps or turn off this device". I've been trying for hours and I don't know what to do. Please help
If "Move to iOS" doesn't work, is there another method to transfer your texts from Android to iOS (and back)? I don't care about pictures, because they can be moved manually between OS's without much fuss, and apps\settings are easy enough to redo, but the texts are a real problem. If "Move to iOS" doesn't work, there must be a decent third-party solution, but I've been struggling to find one. Does anyone have any suggestions?
@@TechSteve oh i see, can you tell me what is the best way for me to be able to transfer all of my fikes from huawei nova 5t to iphone 12 or 13 pro max? Thank you so much 🙏
Upload to Google Drive and Google Photo then Download them with the Google Apps on the iPhone. You’ll never get everything but that what happens when you change eco systems
@@TechSteve thank you so much sir Steve well i guess i just have to live in a new eco system the ios system 😁 hope i can manage all of ur instructions, wish me luck
Good luck, i just switched my mother over and she loves the iphone call quality over her older Android and getting use to the apps. She does miss free ringtone but i told her to move on because those apps are full of spam. You will be fine.
Looks simple enough...I tried the app and it was frustratingly useless for me. the phones could not connect. I spent hours troubleshooting to no vail and I am still here looking for a alternate solution.
You may have to manually move them by exporting out and importing in to your new phone. Keep in mind that if they are on a gmail, yahoo, Microsoft account they will sync to your new phone after you add the email account.. Far as the sim that would be fine to move but some carriers like for people to update to a new one, your choice.

Thanks, Steve. Very helpful to a technopeasant! Transfer is complete. So I put the SIM from Android into iPhone now?
Since it uses wifi, you can move the SIM card anytime.
Hope to use these tips moving from S8 to XS. Thanks and Peace out!
Before I watched your video i tried moving my wife’s data and i totally stuffed it up. I know feel confident to get the job done right. Thanks Steve.
You’re welcome, I’m glad the video helped.
Mine don't connect.
It’s tedious for sure. Try to restart both devices

Did you check the software requirements to see if the os is supported?
What do you need the cable for ?
@@TechSteve which cable

how long does it normally takes for the back up to be completed?
30-40 minutes but it depends on your internet speed
Steve why my android phone keeps saying is not connected with the iphone\ when i follow the steps ???
Moving from a s9 to an 11 tomorrow so ill need these
What about WhatsApp? I'm really struggling here
same here... Stuck with whatsapp messages backed up in my Google drive. Unable to move the same to my new iphone..
On iPhones it uses the iCloud to backup, so you have to buy a $40 program like dr. Pone
Question? Do you keep all the photos and your stuff from your apple id if you restart and re enter your apple id when transferring from android to ios and you already had things on your iphone
You have to start over and loose everything or purchase a software that manual lets you transfer to a computer something like this older video ua-cam.com/video/bJRl1VeDUTg/v-deo.html
Tech Steve okay thanks!
Will it restore my backup file in itunes and retained those transfer via move to ios?
No, you either use this or restore your backup
@@TechSteve ah okay thanks!

Is it possible to copy WhatsApp chats, call logs and sms from Android to IPhone?
Do both the phones need to have sims? I’ve been attempting this but my iphone has no sim atm any advice?
You can do the transfer without sims
Ok I’ll keep trying but it doesn’t seem to be working. Thanks for the response man👍🏻
It took me about 5 times to get it going, it can be frustrating
Can I put my old sim in my new iPhone first before the transfer?
Yes anytime you like
hey, ur probably not gonna look at this but did you move your sim card before this to the iphone
It doesn’t matter just move anytime you like. This process works via WiFi
@@TechSteve thanks 👍

Can we transfer messages like this from android to iPhone??
There’s a hair on the table ... I thought it was a scratch on my screen hahaha😂
Did you move the SIM card to the iPhone after this?
You can move the sim card anytime, this whole process is done using wifi.
My android phone keeps saying "the transfer was interrupted do not switch to other apps or turn off this device". I've been trying for hours and I don't know what to do. Please help
Try rebooting both phones, and use the original Apple cable if possible. It was a pain for me too.
I couldn't get it to work! Kept saying connecting to iPhone and it kicked back out. Help plz
Try to reset and trust device
What about text messages?
Will music work the same way
You have to use iTunes, to add music but cloud services like Spotify works the same
thanks really helpful.
Does doing this move your phone number to your new phone or no?
The sim card has the number in it
my android keeps saying cannot communicate with device..any suggestions ?
Try rebooting both devices then try again
@@TechSteve I did restart my android multiple times..im using a oneplus 5 transferring to an iphone 8 plus
Christopher Lao worked bro?
@@itaachiii try doing this with an android with 7.0 OS
I can only advise with the issues of the equipment I own but sometimes there’s models that doesn’t work as good.
What about if your android is broken?
I use a galaxy a10, could I just put the sim card into an iPhone 13? I just want my phone number and contacts saved.
Sims don’t save contacts you need a cloud or a export import process. It’s not that simple anymore
no clue what that is but thanks, I'll look into it.

Hi Steve my iphone X refuses to connect with my galaxy s9 any ideas doing exactly what you are.
Make sure the software is updated on both units. Reboot and try to connect after you reboot.
How come no one of these videos address the SIM card?
Switch it anytime it’s not important when doing this process on wifi
@@TechSteve wait so if i put my android sim card in the iphone before and do this will it still work
You can move the sim card before or after, just make sure you turn the phone off 1st

That’s for phone calls you can swap at anytime

lol my android broke that's why im watching this video. DIDN'T KNOW I NEED THE OTHER PHONE TO WORK!!!!
If you are transferring information at home can you keep your same phone number?
The phone number is on the sim card it has nothing to do with transferring files.
@@TechSteve Ok,so I would have to take the sim card out and put it in the other phone?
Yes unless you had a new one activated
@@TechSteve Ok, thank you so much.
@@TechSteve I have another question. Do I put the sim card in before or after I set the phone up?
All of my photos have gone out of their original order from android to iOS. Is there any way to stop this from happening?
It’s to different eco systems, if you use google photos it will keep the same structure but that takes some getting use to.
What if you don't have any music what do you do to the sim card
You can move the sim card anytime you like that’s just for phone calls but the transfer required wifi
Also one more question how do you connect to the internet
Hi sir, i tried it but photos, some contacts, messages and some apps wasnt able to appear on my iphone, what could've been wrong? Thank you
