JeffersLos Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 One of my phones fell a few months ago and part of the screen chipped/cracked. Since then the touch screen has been iffy to use. I am happy with the brand and model, and am happy to get a new version. On this phone I have Google Authenticator, which is vital not to mess up as it controls all transactions on the bitkub application etc. The banking apps are important, Grab delivery etc etc. If getting a new phone I want to get as close to a plug and play situation as possible. Where all apps, all passwords, cached chats and information (such as finance tracker and fitness tracking history) and everything else is transferred to the new phone, without downloading them all again, signing in with username and password etc. I also was to transfer all photo and video files from the phone's memory to the new phone. Is it possible to do this? Especially in regards to Google Authenticator and bitkub. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Re: Google Authenticator 1. Open Authenticator then tap the three-dot menu icon followed by Export accounts. 2. Select Export accounts and enter your PIN code when prompted. 3. Pick the accounts you want to transfer then tap Export Accounts. On your new phone 1. Open Authenticator, tap Get Started, 2. Tap Import existing accounts? located at the bottom of the screen. 3. Select Scan QR code and scan the Qr Codes your OLD phone is showing Edited July 1, 2022 by MJCM 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavideol Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Samsung site will help you with the transfer, it's no a complicated operation or you can do a complete backup by using Samsung app called Smart Switch, install it on your computer and it will tell you to connect the phone and what you want to backup, once completed the same app will allow you to restore the backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so... sorry for overlooking your phone's name, I saw Android and assume it was Samsung then realized it was a different name, Smart Switch only recognizes Samsung phones, I try to use my Google Pixel with it and told me to take a hike 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
