Switching to Pixel doesn't mean having to buy all your favorite devices again. Your Pixel can connect to common Apple products like AirPods® and Mac® computers. AirPods® can pair with Pixel and you can even text on your Mac®—just use Google Messages for web.

Most smartwatches running Wear OS or Fitbit will work with Pixel phones, but unfortunately Apple Watch® is not compatible. Pixel works great with the Pixel Watch, which delivers the best of Google and Fitbit.

One of the best things about Google is connectivity with various devices, from the range of compatible devices (like Chromebooks, Lenovo tablets, Beats headphones, BMW and Honda cars, and Sony and Samsung TVs) to how they come together. Android OS works across all of them to give you a simple, cohesive experience. Plus, Cast, Fast Pair, Nearby Share and many more features help make your digital day-to-day feel effortless.

Pixel makes it easy to transfer over what you need from your existing phone, including the following:

• Contacts and calendars
• Photos and videos saved on your iPhone®
• Texts and iMessages
• WhatsApp chat history
• MP3s and audio files
• Notes
• See the full list of what copies during setup here

After initial setup, here's what else you can transfer over:

• Music: your music from subscription services such as Spotify or Apple Music (just sign into the service on your Pixel)
• Non-Google accounts and their data, including contacts and calendar events
• Progress that you've made in some gaming apps or websites (just sign in on your Pixel)
• Photos, videos, documents, and other files stored in iCloud (Learn how)

What won't transfer over:

• In-app purchases
• Wi-Fi passwords
• Music with Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection
• Bookmarks from Safari®

For more information, visit the Pixel Help Center.

During the data transfer, Pixel makes a copy of your photos, videos, messages, and more. This means that everything remains just as you have it and safe on your iPhone®, in case you need to find anything at a later time.

If your passwords are stored in Keychain or another browser, you can use your Mac computer to export them, and then can import them into Google Password Manager. Google Password Manager makes it easy to create, save, manage and protect your passwords.

If you use Google Chrome on iOS and have saved passwords in Google Password Manager, your passwords will be saved and available on your Pixel.

If you use a third-party password manager, you can sign in to your account and sync your passwords to your new device.

Your Pixel comes with your favorite Google apps - like YouTube, Search, Gmail, Maps, Photos, and Calendar - providing a seamless experience across apps. And, with Pixel, you get the latest innovations from popular Google apps first and for free, like:

• Magic Eraser and Photo Unblur from Google Photos.
• Google Search and Lens built right into your home screen, camera and Google Photos.
• Google Translate across your device, including automatic translation in messaging apps.
• Google One's VPN built in, at no extra cost, so your online activity is protected.

Most of your free apps will copy over automatically to your Pixel when you set up your phone, as long as they are available on Google Play.

Apps purchased on your iPhone will not transfer over automatically, but you can contact the app developer to see if they have options for moving it to your new Pixel.

Existing subscription services, such as Spotify or Apple Music, will work on your Pixel. The same goes for progress that you've made in any gaming apps or websites. Just sign in to the service or app on your Pixel.

You can enjoy group messaging with family and friends using Google Messages, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and many other communication apps.

Text messages are available on the Messages app on Pixel, where you can send reactions and see reactions from friends using iMessages, emoji, custom stickers and more.

Also, if you were previously using your Apple ID (instead of your phone number) for group chats, then you'll want to start a new group message thread on your Pixel to continue the conversation. Or use another messaging service, like WhatsApp, for group messaging.

Google already makes it easy to connect all your favorite Google apps—like Gmail, YouTube, Maps, Photos and Calendar—through a Google Account. With Pixel, your important data, like photos and messages, can also sync across devices.

Google Photos lets you securely back up your photos and videos and enjoy them from any device. Your photos are automatically organized and searchable, so you can easily find what you're looking for.

With Pixel, you can still seamlessly transition from texting from your phone to laptop—even if it's a Mac. Just use Google Messages for web.

If you have a Google Account or have used Google apps before—like Search, Gmail, or YouTube—your Pixel will already feel familiar. Plus, you'll find that there are a lot of similarities between navigating an iPhone® and a Pixel, like gestures to go back, going to the home screen, and swiping up to multitask. Pixel also helps you get to know your new phone with on-screen help and tutorials.

For step-by-step help, Pixel Guidebooks and the Tips app on Pixel include helpful lessons for new Pixel owners.

If you have questions, visit the Pixel Phone Help Center to find answers or contact us directly.

Good news—you can still join FaceTime® calls from your Pixel phone if someone sends you a link. Check out how here.

And while Pixel does not feature the FaceTime® app, you can still easily video call with your friends and family with Google Meet, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and many other communication apps.

Yes, you'll still be able to access your iCloud® content at icloud.com, using your Apple ID and password.

Pixel's equivalent of iCloud® is Google One, which supports storage across Gmail, Drive and Google Photos. You can also copy other existing iCloud® content into Google One.
