Using your Google account is among the simplest methods for moving contacts between Android devices. You may upload your contacts (and other data, such as calendars, if you'd like) to Google Cloud, and then view the data on any device that is connected to your Google account.
Although this is a fantastic method for sharing data between devices, you might want to think about Method 1 if you would rather not have your data kept in the cloud.
How do I verify my Google Account without my old phone?
Let's examine how to use your Google Account to sync contacts between Android devices:
- Open the Settings app on your old Android phone.
- To sync Google Contacts, select Google > Settings for Google apps.
- The number of contacts that are currently synchronizing with your Google account and the number that are not will be displayed here.
- To automatically backup and sync device contacts, tap "Also sync device contacts."
- Turn on automatic device contact syncing and backup.
- To preserve your contacts, choose which Google account to use.
- Your contacts will sync with your new Android phone when you turn it on and log in using the same Google account.
The Nearby Share function allows you to copy contacts between two Android smartphones running Android 6 or later. You won't need to download an additional app to utilize this function because it will already be available on your devices.
You must first enable Nearby Share on your Android smartphones. Toggle Nearby Share ON by tapping after selecting Devices and Sharing > Nearby Share under Settings > Google.
Changes to your device's visibility and the way you want to exchange your contacts (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile data, etc.) can also be made here.
- Let's now examine how to use Nearby Share to share contacts.
