What is Switch to Android?

Google released this app a few months ago, introducing it as a wireless data transfer system that enables sending contact data, calendar events, photos and videos stored in an iPhone to another device running a different operating system.

Apple's Move to iOS has been available in Google Play for some time, and now Google seems to be working on Switch to Android, which will be available on the App Store to make the change from iOS to Android easier.

An important new feature is that data is transferred through Wi-Fi Direct, instead of needing to connect both devices to eachother by cable.

The second big piece of news is that Google has made changes to the app description to mention apps will be carried over as well. For technical reasons, it seems fairly unlikely that app data itself will be transferred, so it's probably something simpler like identifying what apps were installed in the iPhone and downloading them to the Android device.

How can we help you take your idea to the next level?
