How to Use Clone Phone to Transfer Files to Another Smartphone
Whether you’re looking to transfer your apps and data to a new OnePlus or another Android device, the OnePlus Clone Phone app can automate the entire process with just a few taps of your screen. The following steps will get you through the whole process.
Does OnePlus Switch/Clone Phone Transfer Whatsapp?
If used correctly, OnePlus Switch, now Clone Phone, will transfer the Whatsapp client itself without any issue. If that’s all you needed the program to do, then you’re already set. If you want to transfer all of your messages in addition to the app, then you should use Whatsapp’s built-in manual backup system before switching to your new phone. The Whatsapp app can back up your messages through Google Drive, so be sure to do so before resetting your old device and moving to the new one.
Can OnePlus Phones Use Smart Switch?
OnePlus isn’t the only mobile device manufacturer with an in-house data transfer solution. Samsung’s Smart Switch is a popular solution when swapping to and from their line of devices. Though the Clone Phone (formerly OnePlus Switch) app doesn’t interact directly with Smart Switch, you can use the latter program instead of the OnePlus app.
Is OnePlus Switch/Clone Phone Safe?
Protecting your data is an important idea to consider when swapping phones. As a localized application, the OnePlus Clone Phone app (formerly OnePlus Switch) connects your old phone directly to your new phone without having to connect to a third party’s servers, so any data transferred should be safe from prying eyes. Once completed, it’s good practice to completely wipe your old phone of any sensitive data before ditching it for your new device.
