Following Apple's Far Out event, the iPhone 14 lineup was officially announced. With many people excited to get their hands on the latest iPhone 14, it begs the question of how Android users can transfer their existing smartphone's data to the iPhone 14 handset.

For iPhone to iPhone users, the process is simple since all you need to do is place your old and new iPhones next to each other for the data transfer to begin.

However, transferring data from Android to iPhone can be a lengthy process that's a little daunting.

Using Move to iOS

With a new iOS device and an old Android smartphone, you can transfer data over to your new iPhone 14 using the Move to iOS app. Here's how:

  • Navigate to Apps & Data on your iOS device and select Move Data from Android.
  • Using your Android device, open the Move to iOS app.
  • On your iOS device, when you see the Move from Android screen, tap Continue.
  • Enter the 10 or 6-digit code on your Android phone displayed on the iPhone.
  • Select Connect on your Android device to join the temporary Wi-Fi network that your iOS device has created.
  • Select the content you wish to move on Android then press Continue.
  • Once the loading bar has finished, you can tap Done on your Android device and select Continue on your iOS device to complete the setup process.

As you can see, the steps to transfer data from Android to iOS are quite lengthy, and could easily be confusing. Not to mention, if both phones aren't connected to a power source and the Wi-Fi connection isn't strong, you could encounter an issue with the transfer process.

However, one of the most frustrating aspects of an Android to iOS transfer is that not all settings or apps get transferred. For example, songs saved to your phone's memory, call logs, ringtones, and so on. Similarly, this process only works if you're setting up an iPhone for the first time—not an already-operating iPhone.
