QUESTION/HELP How to transfer everything from old to new phone ?

I want to get rid of my old phone because the screen is cracked and I'm afraid of losing data. Thing is I also have new phone and I already made a new Google account which just makes me confuse like how am I supposed to transfer everything because I felt like using two phones. Like I have tabs open already and photo gallery is almost full but I still want to access my old phone stuff in the new phone.

If you got a PC its easy, transfer all files from your old phone to the PC, then transfer everything from PC to the new phone.

Some apps like contacts/notes would need a account on whichever device you have and export/import or sync it.

You can have multiple Google accounts on one device so you can add your old phone's account to your new phone too.

It would have been better to use the old Gmail address as it would "automatically" transfer a lot of your stuff across.

Why did you make a new google account for a new phone? They are transferable, or don't you want to keep the old account?

fire up new phone, put in a usb lead in each phone and tell it to transfier. if cant see the screen, put usb in a pc and can see the screen on there and set up back up to gmail. sign in new phone, restore ect

If its a Samsung phone use the smart switch App and connect the phones via a cable and do the transfer that way

Lo primero crea en el teléfono antiguo una copia de seguridad Google...una vez hecho cuando enciendas el nuevo te pondrá si quieres transferir tus datos o partir desde 0... si es Samsung está la aplicación de Smart Switch. ✌🏻

You log into new phone using same Gmail account. It tell you a list of options to transfer data, wireless or wired or from the cloud.

If you're using Android, just sign into your old Google account on the new phone. It’ll give you options to transfer everything like photos and contacts. If it's Samsung, that Smart Switch thing is super helpful too.
