How to transfer data from Android to iPhone
If you’re going from an Android phone to an iPhone, transferring your data is just as easy.
Head to the Google Play Store on your Android device and download the Move to iOS app. Make sure everything is backed up, which you can do through your settings menu (but it should do it automatically anyway), and then follow the instructions on your new iPhone.
iPhone will create its own secure Wi-Fi network, and talk to your old phone. This process might take a little while, but once it’s done, you’ll be ready to go with your new iPhone.
