Transferring from an Apple iOS device to a device which supports an open source operating system, such as Android, is daunting due to the lack of information regarding how to transfer your data between the two.

While there are many devout Apple fans, whether for work or pleasure many Apple users make the switch to a device supporting Android.

Android is used by 84 companies who are part of the Open Handset Alliance and this includes popular manufacturers such as Samsung, Sony, HTC, Google and Motorola.

So it stands to reason that a lot of people find themselves in the position of needing to switch data from iOS to Android.

If you’re one such user who is transferring across, don’t worry- it’s incredibly easy to transfer all your data, such as: messages, contacts, call logs, calendar, photos, music, video and apps, between phones- once you know how that is…

An easy solution is using Wondershare MobileTrans. Basically, Wondershare MobileTrans is a quick and easy way to transfer data between phones and the software supports iPhones right back to the 4S up until the latest iPhone incarnation the 6 Plus; as well as being compatible with iPads and iPod Touch.

The first thing I would suggest doing, before using the software, is backing up all your data to iCloud.

Once you’ve completed this step you can proceed. So without further ado, here’s how to transfer data from an iOS device to an Android device:

Open Wondershare MobileTrans -> Click ‘Start’ -> Connect the two devices you wish to transfer between to your computer via USB -> *A pop-up window will appear* -> Select the data you wish to transfer -> Click ‘Start Copy’

And there you have it. But you can also use Wondershare Mobile Trans to backup all that data in case you ever want to repopulate an iPhone with it easily. Here’s how to do so:

Connect your devices to a computer via USB -> Run Wondershare MobileTrans -> Select ‘Backup’ from the Home Menu -> ‘Tick’ all data you wish to backup -> Click ‘Start Copy’ -> The backup will begin

So next time you switch across devices, don’t sweat the small stuff like this it’s an extremely simple process to transfer data between iOS devices and Android devices.
