I understand. Thanks for clarifying. I'm one of the best on earth for
migrating apps and data so I don't need all those marketing crutches.

However, I agree that "migration" from one phone to another is pretty well
handled nowadays (whether the owner is migrating an iOS or Android device).

All the highly marketed migration strategies simply involve "the cloud".
(IMHO)

Me?

I put nothing on "the cloud" so my migration is pre-planned years ahead.

For example, my app migration is planned years ahead of time.
1. All my apps APKs are automatically backed up at the time of install.
2. My highly-organized home screen is periodically backed up.
3. I can install all my apps in a few seconds by sliding them over.
4. They always go EXACTLY in the new phone where they were in the old.

As for my data migration, that's even easier:
1. I format my external sd card to a known volume name.
2. I tell all my apps (if possible) to store data on that external card.
3. I just pluck the card out of the old phone & pop it into the new phone.

My migration is nearly 100% successful with those two simple strategies.
None of this can be done with iOS as iOS is a brain dead dumb terminal.

But, if you're intelligent, it can all easily be done with Android.

But I'm probably one out of a million Android users who can do all that.
So are you.

But most people need the clusterfuck of needing to use the cloud for that.
