When switching from an iPhone to an Android device, transferring essential information like calendar events can be a bit challenging. Fortunately, there are several ways to easily transfer calendars from iPhone to Android, allowing you to keep track of important dates seamlessly on your new device. If you only have a few key events, manually recreating them in the Android calendar is a straightforward method, especially suited for transferring a small number of essential dates. For larger transfers, tools like Google account, iCloud, or Switch to Android make the process quick and efficient.
Switch to Android is a migration tool developed by Google that allows iPhone users to transfer contacts, calendar events, photos, videos, and other data to their Android device. To make better use of this method, your iPhone needs to be running iOS 12 or later, while for Android, it is recommended to use devices with Android 12 or newer versions.
Steps to share iPhone calendar to Android by Switch to Android
Step 1. Download and install Switch to Android from the App Store on your iPhone. Open the app, accept the terms and conditions, and then tap "Start" to proceed.
Step 2. You will be prompted to allow the iPhone's camera to scan a QR code on your Android phone. If that doesn't work, you can tap the "Cannot scan QR code" option. Then, enable the Wi-Fi hotspot on your Android phone and connect your iPhone to it.
Step 3. Next, select "Calendar" on the transfer interface along with other data types you wish to transfer, such as contacts and photos.
Step 4. Follow the on-screen instructions to deactivate iMessage on your iPhone so you can receive messages on your new Android device.
Step 5. Tap "Start Request", sign in using your Apple ID, and then click "Request a copy of your iCloud data". The transfer process will begin.
Step 6. Once the transfer is complete, you can close the app and continue setting up your new Android device.
Using a Google account is another simple method for transferring calendar events from iPhone to Android. By syncing your iPhone calendar to a Google account, your events will appear automatically on Android. Here are the special steps:
Step 1. On an iPhone, go to "Settings" > "Mail" > "Accounts", tap "Add Account", select "Google", and sign in.
Step 2. Make sure the Calendars option is enabled.
Step 3. On an Android device, open "Settings" > "Accounts", choose "Add Account", and sign in with the same Google account.
Step 4. Open the Calendar app and wait for a few minutes. All calendar events will sync and appear.
If you use iCloud to store your calendars, you can export your data to Google Calendar for viewing on your Android device. This method supports importing multiple calendars at once, but the process is relatively more complicated.
How to transfer a calendar from iPhone to Android using iCloud?
Step 1. On your iPhone, open "Settings" > "Apple ID" > "iCloud" and ensure that Calendars are enabled.
Step 2. Access iCloud.com on your computer and log in.
Step 3. Navigate to Calendars, select the calendars you want to export, click "Calendar Sharing", and tick "Public Calendar".
Step 4. Copy the shared link, open a new browser tab, change "webcal" in the link to "http", and press "Enter" to download the .ics file.
Step 5. On the Google Calendar webpage, click "Settings" > "Import & Export", select the downloaded .ics file, and import it into Google Calendar.
Step 6. Enable Google Calendar synchronization on your Android device.
