Normally, when you set up your new Android device, it asks you if you would like to transfer data (i.e., from iCloud, etc.). So, if your old iPhone have data (i.e., contacts, photos, videos, etc.) uploaded to the iCloud, it can be download automatically.
Noticed that always double check if all your needed data have been transferred successfully before you trade-in your old iPhone (see Video 1.).
How to Transfer Contacts
You can transfer contacts from an iPhone to an Android using Google Drive, Gmail, or a "vCard" file. Syncing your iPhone's contacts to Google Drive or Gmail will let you download them onto any Android phone. Making a vCard file then loading it on the Android will also transfer all of your contacts.
How to Transfer Photos via Google Photos
Download the Google Photos app to your iPhone if you haven't done that yet:
- Open Google Photos app on your iPhone
- Google Photos needs full access to all photos
- Allow Access to All Photos
- Back up as <yourName>
- Confirm
- Head back to Google Photos home page and confirm that your photos were downloaded
- If your iPhone photos were stored in HEIC (or HEIF) format, you need to convert them to JPEG format before downloading them to your Windows Device (or you need an HEIC or HEIF converter).

How to Delete Your Apple Account
Note that the below steps will still need two-factor authentication which requires you to provide Apple ID Verification Code that is sent to your phone number (on your old phone or new phone).
An Apple ID is the personal account you use to access Apple services like iCloud, the App Store and other Apple online stores, iMessage, and FaceTime, and to access your content across all your devices and the web.[11]
Your Apple ID includes the information you use to sign in, as well as all the contact, payment, and security details, such as trusted phone numbers or security questions, that you use across Apple services. Apple retains your device’s name, serial number, and other hardware identifiers to provide you with better service and support, including as a convenience to display the warranty status of your device and to check your eligibility for service offers when you activate a device. You can edit your Apple ID information and view a list of your devices on your Apple ID account page at appleid.apple.com.
When you sign in with your Apple ID you will enable services such as iCloud, the App Store, iMessage, FaceTime, and Find My on this iPhone. Your Apple ID account information will be used with each service, and certain data from your device, including your contacts, calendars, photos, documents, health, activity, Safari tabs, and other app data, will be sent to Apple to store and back up on your behalf.
In case you want to delete your Apple account permanently, here are the steps:
- Head to Apple’s data and privacy webpage login
- Log in to the account you’d like to delete
- Toward the bottom, click on Request to delete your account
- Make sure you want to delete your account and double-check backups of your data
- Double check if you have any subscriptions with your Apple ID
- Choose a reason for deleting your account, click Continue
- Follow the remaining prompts to permanently delete your Apple ID account
