Transfer data from android

I already set up my iPhone 11. Was not able to transfer while setting up due to time constraint. Now want to transfer data but unable to do so. Have installed “move to iOS” on my android phone, but am not getting the screen on iPhone with option of transfer from android ( I skipped it during set up as I thought I can do it later). How do I transfer data? Thanks in advance. Much appreciated.

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, proy7!


I understand you're trying to transfer data from your Android device to your new iPhone 11. I'd be happy to provide information to help you out.


Make sure you follow these steps: Move from Android to iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If you've already setup your iPhone, you'll want to erase the data currently on it in order to follow these steps. You can erase the data in Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.


Have a great day!

Thanks for your response. I was wondering if there's a way to avoid resetting the iPhone. I heard that the "move to IOS" is quite slow. I have managed to move my contacts through gmail backup. I will load the Whatsapp data from my backed up data. Can I move the photos through my laptop? Not sure if iPhone allows that.


I'm still learning, and having finally moved to the iOS world will take some time to readjust. Thanks again for your help.


best regards
