Before you start transfer to your new Fairphone

No matter how you plan to transfer your data, a little preparation goes a long way:

  • Charge both phones: Make sure your old phone and your new Fairphone have enough battery to complete the transfer.
  • Google Account: Ensure you have an active Google account and know your login details. This is crucial for app and data transfer. If you don't have one, create a Google account.
  • Stable Wi-Fi: Connect both devices to a reliable Wi-Fi network.
  • Back up your old device: It’s always a good idea to back up your old phone before you start.
  • Make sure you can unlock your old phone with a PIN, pattern, or password.
