New Smart Switch capabilities in collaboration with Google mean users\u2019 full digital lives can easily move across from Android and iOS devices to the new Galaxy Z series<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Switching to Galaxy has never been easier. New switching capabilities in collaboration with Google expand what Smart Switch can move from an iOS device, so years of photos, messages, logins and settings arrive on new Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8, in a single, seamless move. Smart Switch handles the move wirelessly, with no cable and no third-party tools, so nothing that matters gets left behind. With these upgrades, users can move to the Galaxy Z8 series in a few taps, with all their data intact<\/p>\n Switching to Galaxy is built to be simple. Smart Switch is how you bring your data with you, whether you are coming from an older Galaxy, an iOS device, or another Android phone. A single scan pairs the two devices, with no app to install on the older one and no third-party software or dongles needed, with the option to transfer wirelessly, by cable, or from a cloud backup, all while expanding the list of transferable data to include 17 different types.<\/p>\n What is new is how much further Smart Switch now goes. New capabilities in collaboration with Google move data types that had no path across before, including eSIM profiles, passwords and passkeys. In all, 17 categories of data transfer, so your number, your logins and your call history arrive with everything else, and your new Galaxy feels familiar from the first moment.<\/p>\n The switch does not end at setup. Quick Share on Galaxy and other Android devices now instantly shares files with iOS and other platform users, so photos, videos, documents and more move in both directions between Galaxy and iOS devices. Built with security at its core and independently assessed by a third-party security firm, it means sharing with people on other platforms simply works, one less thing to think about when moving to Galaxy. Quick Share makes it fast and simple to send anything from large files to photos and documents across all your devices, from smartphones to PCs and now iOS devices, so you can share with anyone, instantly.<\/p>\n
