ios-to-androidBack in September with the launch of the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and with the release of iOS 8, Apple posted an official guide on its website in which they showed how users of other platforms could make the switch to an iPhone and iOS. Well it looks like Google has decided to fire back with a guide of their own.

If you were to head on over to the Android website, you will find a guide there on how users can get themselves ready to make the switch onto the Android platform. The guide basically shows you how you can bring some of your music over to your new Android device, as well as your photos that you might have stored on your phone.

It also teaches users how to transfer their contacts, setup email and messaging, as well as how to find their favorite apps that might also exist on the Android platform and might be available for download in the Google Play Store. This guide seems to be targeted at iPhone and iOS users specifically, which makes us wonder if Google could plan on releasing similar guides for BlackBerry or Windows Phone users.

You might recall that back in 2013 Google’s Eric Schmidt released a guide of his own on how to switch from iOS to Android. This guide is essentially the same thing, albeit a bit more cleaned up as well as having a dedicated website for it. So, anyone planning on making the switch themselves?
