New phone - transferring data

WhiteWalls · 2022-03-10 18:20:50

Hi, I'm buying a new phone. Is there a handy way of transferring my apps and data to my new phone? I have a lot of apps and logging in and downloading them all may be awkward. I currently own a Huawei. Thanks

if you buy an android phone ,you,ll need to go to google play ,download, install the apps you normally use .first set up a gmail account with the same username and password as the old one.

You can also use an sdcard to move the music, podcasts mp3s to your new phone
you can still log in to online apps using the passwords you used on the old phone
