I had to wait 6 hours for my data to transfer over and there was 1 minute left but after almost 2 extra hours, it still said that there was 1 minute left. I got fed up and decided to start all over. I'm trying to transfer one file at a time and I keep getting an error. This is so frustrating and really put me off from keeping the iPhone. I just might stick with Android.
Doesn't work. Just spent 24 hours trying! This (again) is a reminder of why I loathe Apple & it's undertone mission to make everything twice as hard (& twice as expensive!) Alas, I've been coaxed to change for work. It's basically impossible to transfer data. Why the noodle wouldn't they just enable it via a cord? The app doesn't do didddly-squat. (I didn't even try to transfer photos either! Lord knows how long that would have taken!) Do not recommend. Please find something.
I wanted to try the iphone 11 and transfer over my texts, but Apple has not updated this app in over three years. None of the workarounds suggested work. The app drops the wifi as soon as you enter the six digit code. But if you enter an incorrect code, the wifi connection sticks and you get 'connecting to iphone'. Apple needs to update this app to work with Android 10. Or, as Apple always says, in a way that "it just works." Enjoy your returned device, Apple.
I can't stress this enough CALL APPLE. Even before you install the app, call them. They'll stay on the phone with you until the transfer goes through. Mine went through fairly quickly and then hot hung up on Apple id setup. They had me shut it down and when it powered back up everything was there. No matter where you bought the phone, CALL APPLE. They will help you.
Worked great for me! I wasn't holding out much hope after reading all of the one star reviews, and I did have a shaky start with a few error messages on my galaxy, but after reading Dawn's review, I put the android in airplane mode like she said, turned off the wifi on my android and it connected no problem. Took about 15 minutes to transfer all. Pretty good app!
Your 0hone has to be at 50% no matter what! Even if you have it plugged in, it won't work. Had to sit around for 30 minutes at the store before I could do the transfer and set everything up. Very poorly designed. Also, iPhone gives you a usbc to lighting cable so why isn't there a wired connection option?? Definitely need to do some major upgrades to this app.
Been waiting over an hour to transfer, and the last 1 minute was transferring for over 20 minutes. And this was after it already had an error the first time and we had to restart it. Decided to just cancel the transfer and start fresh instead and not even bothering to transfer after this headache. I am only switching since I got an iPhone for a Christmas gift, and I was hoping the transfer process would be smoother, but it wasn't. Sucky start unfortunately, though I still appreciate my gift.
WORST APP EVERRRRRRR. If I could give it NEGATIVE 5 stars, I would!!! I have been trying for several days to get my content transferred and it hasn't worked. I eventually tried just my texts and it STILL didn't work. It has gotten stuck at "1 minute remaining" TWICE for more than an hour (almost 2 hours) EACH TIME. Save yourself a headache and don't use this app!!!!! I have been carrying 2 phones around for 6 days trying to get my content transferred and it ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT WORK!!!!!! ðŸ˜
This app is worse than nothing. If you try it and it works, great. If you run into issues and it gets stuck in pending status or you see the time remaining going up and up, you might be better off throwing in the towel and transferring to your new phone manually. I spent hours trying to get this app to do its job and after watching the time remaining go 3% and then error out, the status remain 'pending' for hours, or the time remaining go from 1 hour to 2 to 4, its better just to do it myself.
Seriously, don't waste your time with this app. I tried transferring data from a moto x4 to an iPhone 13 and the process never completed. The app takes 10-15 minutes just to get the phones connected, even when I was on the same private wi-fi. Once finally connected, the estimated time to complete was inaccurate. The iPhone showed 11 hours to complete the data transfer, but proceeded through the first "six hours" in about one hour. The next five hours was about correct, but it got to one minute remaining and never got past it. I waited thirty minutes additional minutes before giving up. Not sure what I'll do now, but save yourself from this headache.
