  • My Pixel 6 is here - yay!
    Seems like it wants to copy data over from the old phone using a cable though, which is unfortunate as the port doesn't work on the old phone. I used SmartSwitch when I got the S8 to do it wirelessly but I think SmartSwitch only works getting data on to Samsungs, not off them.

    Anyone know another way to copy the phone data/contacts/apps over from an S8 to Pixel 6 wirelessly please?

  • All your contacts and email etc will be associated with your google account so don't actually need to be synced over. You just need to log in on your new phone

    In terms of apps, why not embrace the new phone and fresh start and only install what you need as you go?

    Photos are more complicated...depends on whether your photos sync to cloud or not.

  • I suppose the give up & accept it option is probably going to win out in the end yes!

    I think my pictures are all in Google Photos, which must be on the cloud somewhere, at least the ones I've taken. Maybe I'll just give it a go!
