If you receive a phone call during the Android-to-iOS transfer – or open another app besides Move to iOS – it will instantly cancel the transfer.

Once your storage is squared away, turn off your mobile data on your Android device in Settings > Data. You can always re-download those files later. You could also back up files to Google Drive or another cloud storage app, then delete them from your phone. You can help avoid this by spring-cleaning your device to get rid of any old content you no longer need before using the Move to iOS app. If your stored Android files exceed your new iPhone's capacity, the transfer will stop when it runs out of room – and as many of us have discovered, the app won't necessarily tell you that that’s why the transfer failed. Then, you'll need to make sure both devices are connected to power, your Android device is connected to Wi-Fi, and your iOS device has enough storage for the data you want to transfer (including anything on an installed SD card).

Delete any unwanted apps, photos and media – this is your chance for a 'smartphone spring cleaning' and you'll be surprised how many apps you rarely use when you think about it. Before the transfer, clean your Android phone as much as possible.
