How to Set Up Your New Android Phone
1 / 3 Chevron Chevron Photograph: Simon Hill Folks who don't want to copy data directly should sign in to their Google account and choose the most recent device backup to restore to the new phone. Whether your old phone is an Android or an iPhone, your best bet is to use Google’s cloud-based service, Google Photos, which comes preinstalled on Android devices. Pick up your old phone and back up all your photos to the Google Photos cloud by opening the app and tapping your small round user icon in the upper right. Your photos should then be available to browse and download on your new Android phone—as well as the web, and any iOS device where you’ve downloaded the Google Photos app.
