Have you just bought a new Android phone to replace your old iPhone? You may now want to transfer all of your data from your old phone to your new one, instead of starting all over again.
You can't transfer music from iPhone to Android using an app like iTunes alone, but it's easy with the steps in this article. Let's see how to transfer your iPhone's music to your new Android phone!
Summary
For this guide, we'll be using a Windows PC to copy music from an iPhone to the PC, and then from the PC to a new Android device. We'll be using 2 apps to accomplish this: TouchCopy and Droid Transfer.
Copy your music to the Android device using one of the options at the top of the Droid Transfer Music section:
"Sync iTunes": If you copied your iPhone music to your iTunes library with TouchCopy, use this feature to sync your iTunes library with your Android device.
"Sync Folder": Sync music from a folder you select on your PC.
"Add Music to Device": Manually select music from your PC to copy to your Android device.
Further Details and Tips
What if I don't want to copy all my music from iPhone to PC?
If you only want to copy certain tracks, select the tracks you want by Ctrl+clicking multiple tracks, or shift-clicking groups of tracks.
To select all tracks, click a single track, and then use Ctrl+A on your keyboard.
Which option do I choose in Droid Transfer to copy music to my Android?
You have 3 options in Droid Transfer for adding music to your device - each with its own merits.
If you copied your music to iTunes with TouchCopy, the easiest option for you would be to use the "Sync iTunes" feature in Droid Transfer. Droid Transfer will compare the music in your iTunes library with the music already on your device. To copy tracks from iTunes, click "Sync tracks to Android".
If you copied to the Apple Music app, you'll need to use the "Sync Folder" feature in Droid Transfer. This will allow you to choose the folder on your PC where your music is stored - Droid Transfer will then perform the comparison between the music in your folder and the music on your device.
And if you would prefer not to sync your music, click "Add Music to Device". This will allow you to simply select the music from your PC to add to your Android device.
And there you have it, you've transferred music from iPhone to your Android device!
