CLONEit Makes it Easier than ever to Move from One Android to Another

I keep changing phones every few months, yes, I try to stick with one but then, there are too many amazing phones releasing every day.

So, blame the Phone Manufacturers for this. :-)

Anyway, to start using a new phone is as exciting as it sounds, but the process of moving it really boring. I simply hate that part.

I mean, I’ve got a set of apps that I take with me on every phone I use, no matter how shorter the duration may be. And then I spend a good amount of time on personalizing it.

Thankfully I came to know about this really nice app call CLONEit, which makes life easy. It, as the name suggests, literally clones your current device into your new one.

How does CLONEit work?

Well, you need to install the CLONEit app on both the new and the current Android devices from the play store.

Moving from one Android Phone to Another

Open the app, tap on ‘Reciever’ on the new phone and tap on ‘Sender’ on the current phone.

The current phone will then create a Hotspot connection. Turn on the Wi-Fi on the new phone and connect it to the Hotspot connection created by the current phone.

Now, the current phone’s name will appear on the new phone’s CLONEit app screen.

Tap on the name, it will confirm the sender.

Now, on the current phone, you will have to select the things you want to move to your new phone.

The options cover almost everything you would have on your phone. CLONEit app even lets you select the apps you want to install on the new phone.

The app will also install a script that will automatically install the selected apps on the new phone.

Note: In order to make this work, you need to check ‘install from unknown sources’ in the settings. That will let the app install APK files of the app.

Note: If you sync your Contacts using Google, selecting Contacts to move might create Duplicate entries in the Contact list. So, better skip it.

CLONEit is really an amazing app that makes switching phones easier.
