Sony today announced that its Xperia Transfer application is now available worldwide in the Google Play Store.
Xperia Transfer Mobile is a smartphone version of Sony’s desktop app that makes it easier to port contacts and other data from one device to another. According to Sony, the new Android app negates the need to use a desktop machine at all, as it allows users to transfer personal data directly from an old phone to a new phone using a peer-to-peer connection or cable. Xperia Transfer can sync contacts, calendar, SMS, MMS, bookmarks, notes, photos, music, videos, and apps.
The app can transfer data from another Android device or from an iPhone. Sony said if iOS apps aren’t available in Android form, it will suggest comparable apps/services to replace them on the Xperia smartphone.
Xperia Transfer is free to download from the Google Play Store.
