How to Transfer Your Data to a New Android Phone
Goal: move to a new Android phone without assuming that “everything” is one transfer. The Android setup assistant can copy many accounts, apps, messages, settings, and media, but authenticator data, eSIM, banking apps, local files, work profiles, and some app histories may require separate steps. Keep the old phone intact until the new one passes a complete verification. Quick steps Update and back up the old phone first. Charge both devices and connect them to stable Wi-Fi. During first setup on the new phone, choose to copy apps and data. Use a cable when available; otherwise use the supported wireless transfer. Sign in with the same Google account and follow on-screen prompts. Handle eSIM, authenticator, banking, and messaging apps separately as required. Verify the new phone before erasing the old one. Expected result: the new Android device contains the data and accounts you need, and anything that does not transfer automatically is identified before the old device is reset.
