Apple created the Move To iOS app (Play Store) solely for the purpose of moving content from Android to iPad, iPhone, or iPhone Touch. The app helps Android users migrate calendars, contacts, mail accounts, media (photos and videos), messages, and web bookmarks to iOS (and iPadOS). It also moves the equivalent of free Android apps on the iOS App Store.
