Move to iOS app. The app, made for Android (Apple's first Android app, actually), hooks the two phones up with a direct Wi-Fi network and transfers over all your data. Depending on how much is on your phone, it could take a while to transfer everything, but the wireless device-to-device connection makes for a relatively speedy transfer process.</p> <p>The Move to iOS app transfers your photos, calendar, contacts, text messages, and photos and videos. It doesn't transfer your apps (they're obviously not compatible anyway), music, or any of your passwords. Additionally, the option to transfer data from an Android phone with Move to iOS is only available on devices running
iOS 9 or higher, so your brand-new
iPhone 6s will be able to pull your contacts, photos, and more from your old Android phone.</p> <ul><li>Free (Android only) -

Apple Watch isn't your thing, you can bring your old
Android Wear watch to the iPhone too.</p> <ul><li>Gmail (Free) - <a href="
