The technology has evolved a lot. Currently, it is already possible to transfer data from an old Android phone to a new one in a few minutes, even if they are from different manufacturers. That way you don’t lose your contacts, photos, music and important files. Below, I will show you how to do this.

Time needed: 5 minutes.

To perform data transfer, you need to install dr.fone on your computer — the software is available for Windows and Mac . It allows you to copy different types of files from one phone to another, such as call log, SMS, photos, music and more.

It is important to emphasize that the transfer time depends on the amount of information you want to migrate to the new model. If you want to transfer a lot of data, in addition to the process taking time to complete, the new cell phone also needs to have enough storage to receive the files.

That said, follow the instructions below to learn how to transfer data from one Android to another:

  1. Enter the clipboard :Click on “Transfer Cell Phone” (Picture: Playback / dr.phone)Open the program and click on “Transfer Cell Phone”;
