Transfer of text photos

Transferring SMS Photos from Android:

You said nothing of using an Android device —you posted this in the iPhone forums. That being said, my user tip would not apply in this case.

So, do you still have access to this Samsung phone? If so, you’d have to download the images, or take screenshots of them. iOS and Android are completely different platforms. So, incompatibility is the culprit here.

Getting Messages Photos Seen:

A. Download the Photos to the New iPhone:

These photos are locally-stored files. So, add them to your iPhone's photos app, and they should be accessible.

B. Print these Threads:

Another option would be to print these message threads that are on your former iPhone. See my User Tip: How to Save or Print a Complete iPhone Messages Thread - User Tip

Hello,

These photos you should separately download of of text it does not transfer to iOS immediately.
