How to move your data to a new Android phone

Android backs up everything to your Google account automatically. When you set up your new phone, sign in with your Gmail account and choose 'Restore from backup'. Your contacts, apps, photos, and messages will transfer in 20-30 minutes. Stay on WiFi while it completes.

Android automatically backs up all your important data — contacts, apps, photos, messages, calendar, and settings — to your Google account. When you set up a new phone and sign in with the same Google account, you just tap 'Restore from backup' and everything comes back. The whole process takes about 30 minutes.
