Swap to Android’ App Now Available to All Phones with Android 12

Source: www.gizmodo.com

Android announced its support for the ‘Swap to Android’ app on iOS Wednesday, which will now be available to all users moving from iOS to phones with Android 12. The app is designed to make the hassle of transitioning from iPhone to Android easier. Android’s ‘Swap to Android’ is a welcome sight for former Apple fans who moved to Google’s mobile operating system, especially since Apple released the ‘Move to iOS’ app in 2015 for Android-to-iPhone switchers.

Google soft launched the ‘Swap to Android’ app in late April. If you wanted to move your data from iPhone to Android, it was a more tedious task before this app. You would have to go to a ‘Switch to Android’ webpage, back up your data to a computer, and then move it to Google Drive.

The app helps move important information from your iPhone to your Android. You can connect your iPhone to Android via cable or wifi, and then you have to follow their setup instructions for a seamless data transfer. And you don’t have to worry about your data disappearing from your old phone, the transfer just makes a copy of your data.

According to Android’s website, the data that will move from iPhone to Android via cable is the following: Contacts, Photos and Videos (that are stored locally on your phone, not iCloud), Messages, Wallpapers (custom photos only), Music (any DRM free, non-iTunes music), as well as call logs, alarms, and device settings.

If everything on your iPhone is backed up to iCloud, you may have a longer process. When the Android app was originally found unlisted in the iOS app store, one of Gizmodo’s reporters tested it out. The last step was to sign in to your Apple ID to copy your photos and videos from iCloud, and also involves sending a request to Apple for a copy of all your data. The positives of swapping to Android and using this app may outweigh this con of waiting for your data to transfer, as Android has features a lot of people love.

Great service! Fixed up a water spill corrosion. Laptop worked for a few days after but then didn't work again, so I brought it back in and the owner spent an extra 30 minutes with me to fix up the issue. Laptop works without issues now. Took my broken phone screen for a fix in the same week. All fixed up too! I know, a bad week for my electronics...

My boyfriend cracked his apple watch screen. So for his birthday I brought it here for a screen repair. They charged me about 150, said they could replace it. Picked it up and turned it on and it was working fine. A couple of days later it stopped working. And upon closer examination the screen was glued on and I was able to pull it off pretty easily. What a scam. If you can't actually do the repair properly why take on the job? Came in with a fully functional product with a cracked screen and got back a hack job. Water and sweat obviously just killed the watch completely. I didnt even bother coming back I just felt like such an idiot. But just beware. Just take your stuff to the apple store.EDIT: In regards to the response you should probably tell customers that before or even after the transaction. Love that the warranty is to replace the part, but your carelessness already ruined the watch so I guess that's another way of saying tough luck we basically got your money and you have no recourse.

They were able to ship a new screen overnight and replace my Pixel 7 Pro screen in under an hour for a great price. Don't go to the big chain stores - go here! Friendly, honest, and fast.

I have a bad habit of demolishing my phone screen on a semi-regular basis, but Charlie always hooks it up when I need it the most! Highly recommend this shop, they always get it sorted in an hour or less (my last visit took only 20 minutes)! Excellent service at lightning speed!!

Once again, Stacy at Eazy Computers & Iphone repair saved the day. They have salvaged my Wawa coffee soaked keyboard, my cracked iphone, and today, my glitched out Comcast disappearing password! They are patient, efficient, accommodating, and oh yeah, tech savvy! Maybe even truly tech genius! Thank you again, Eazy Computers on Chestnut Street!

This place is a gem. Most recently I thought my cracked screen iPhone was shot and went in to purchase one of their used models. The salesperson assured me mine was fine and just needed a new screen which she replaced in 15 minutes. I was ready to plonk down $400 but the salesperson talked me out of it.Laptop repair - super quick, excellent communication, great price. They researched and provided me with a home entertainment set up complete with descriptions, pros/cons and costs.Eazy Computers & iPhone Repair not only gives me very fair prices for excellent work, they restore my faith in humanity.
