Phone Transfer is a handy and straight-forward tool that allows you to transfer data including contacts, videos, music, photos, text messages, calendars, call logs, apps from iOS to iOS, Android to Android, iOS to and from Android.
It also comes with other features which let you back up data from your device onto a computer, or retrieve files from your iTunes/ iCloud backups and put onto your iOS & Android devices.
As the processes of data transferring, backup, and restoring in both Mac and Windows are actually the same, we here take Mac version for example. Let's take a look at how it works.
Part 1: How to Transfer Data from Phone to Phone
Attach your both devices (Android, iOS) with USB cables to the computer.
Open up the program, you'll be presented with its main interface, as image given below. Next, click the "Phone to Phone Transfer" module to open the transfer window.
Note: if you're trying to transfer data from Android to Android/ iOS, you need to turn USB debugging mode on your source device to authorize the tool to access the data and continue the process. Don't worry, you can finish it quickly and easily with just a few taps on the device. You can click the "Cannot recognize your device" link on the bottom of the screen to get into the demo. Or follow the detailed guide about How to Enable USB Debugging Mode on Android.
Now your both devices appears on the interface. Clik the Flip button to exchange position between the source device and target device.
The tool will start scanning the source device automatically and finally display all its available files on the center pane: Contacts, Text Messages, Calendar, Call logs, Apps, Photos, Music, Videos.
Note: Apps is not supported for transferring from iOS to Android.
Now check the box beside the files to select the data you want to transfer.
When everything is OK, press the "Start Copy" button. The tool will start transferring the files.
