Sync Content to Your Computer Before You Switch Before switching from Android to iPhone, it's crucial to back up your Android phone to your computer.

The easiest way to switch from Samsung to iPhone is with Apple's free Move to iOS Android app. Move to iOS copies photos, messages, contacts, and other key data from your Samsung to your new iPhone.

Especially when considering your precious photos, contacts, chats, and apps. The good news is that moving your data from Android to iPhone is way easier than you think.

SIM cards can only hold so many contacts, which is why using a Google account to backup contacts is common practice when swapping to a new smartphone.
