It is always exciting to buy a new phone from a new brand different from what you have used before. Each manufacturer adds its own features and improvements and unique design of the user interface. The most popular platforms are Android, Apple iOS and Windows Phone. Each of them has its own advantages and weaknesses. All three of them are very different from each other. Therefore switching from one mobile operating system to another takes some time until you get used to it.
The physical transferring of data, contacts, photos and music between devices running on different platforms is certainly not a real joy to do. Therefore more and more companies are presenting apps and websites that assist the process of transferring from one device to another. Sony is a good example for a mobile leader that has released a program that eases the process. It is named the Xperia Transfer program purposed for new owners of a phone from the Xperia line that are switching from Android- or iOS-based devices.
The mobile giant Apple is also trying its best to provide support for users that are using iPhones and iPads for first time. The newly launched support page is purposed mainly for Android users who are embracing the iOS. The new section is set in the Support page under the name “Move content from your Android phone to iPhone.” It consists of easy guides and tips for transferring data from Android-running models to phones and tablets working on iOS. The support page suggests using of third-parties for easy and fast transferring of pictures, music, videos, calendars or contacts.
You can use apps like AT&T Mobile Transfer or Copy My Data. They can be downloaded from both, App Store and Google Play Store. Another option for the moving of the media files is by using your computer with iTunes. All you need to do is to connect your Android-based device, then transfer the files you need and then move theme in your iPhone or iPad. The Support page is a useful tool that is promising to help you a lot if you are switching between platforms.
