With globalization and nuclear culture evolving, it has become important that we keep in touch with people who we know and at the same time, build new relationships. During this process, we keep the contacts safely that contain several details of the people that we already have around us, and of those who possess proper relationship. While switching from one device to another, many people fear of losing the contacts and hence, take a back step to use a new appliance. The post is for those who fear that they will lose contacts while moving from iPhone to Android platforms.
Android is the leading mobile operating system platform with over 55% market share across the globe. The reason is the ease and flexibility it offers. With each upgrade, the OS is becoming more stable, friendlier, and stronger. Speaking in terms of a consumer, it is the perfect OS, as it has all the ingredients that one would wish from a platform. The year 2016 saw some of the best devices coming out with Android 6.0 and Android 7.0 Marshmallow OS. The best example that we can put forward is the Samsung Galaxy S7 with its incredible features.
Apple iOS, unlike Android, is not user-friendly software. It requires everything built by Apple to communicate with other devices. For instance, it is not possible to move contents from another iPhone to a new iPod directly. The only way is through iTunes, which is again a series of steps. However, with Android, users can directly transfer their content from any device to another (irrespective of the smartphone manufacturer) in a few simple steps with ease. Due to this, there has been a great switch from iOS to Android. Those who are willing to move to Android do not have to worry about copying their contacts any longer.
