Move to IOS does not transfer apps on 13 PRO

Got an I-phone 13 PRO and not one app transferred across from Android to IOS.

Does anyone know how I can transfer the apps across from my Android without downloading every one.

When using the 'move to IOS' app I did select the option to transfer across all apps from the android.

iPhone 13 Pro

Even from iPhone to iPhone apps don't transfer. Only the App link is transferred along with the App Data.


Stay connected to the internet and continue using the iPhone. Depending on the internet speed all apps will get downloaded from the App Store automatically. Apps don't transfer from iPhone to iPhone, only the app data along with app links to the App Store gets transferred.


Apart from the above following will also not get transferred.


  • Content from the iTunes and App Stores or PDFs downloaded directly to Apple Books
  • Content synced from iTunes, like imported MP3s or CDs, videos, books, and photos
  • Data already stored in iCloud, like iCloud Photos, iMessages, and text (SMS) and multimedia (MMS) messages
  • Face ID or Touch ID settings
  • Apple Pay information and settings
  • Apple Mail data
  • Apple Music
