Do cellphone makers offer apps for merge phones?
Most of the cellphone makers offer free tools for new users to transfer data to their new phone for smoothly switch to their new product. However, these tools require you to erase the content on the target device before moving. This is completely different from the way of data merging.
For example, Apple Inc. developed the Move to iOS app for iPhone users to move data to iPhone from Android. But this app is only for a new iPhone or an erased iPhone that you’ve reset to factory setting.
Free methods to combine contacts, emails, photos, videos, and other media files between two phones
Luckily, there are some free methods you can use to transfer contacts and media files between two Phones. And we gathered a few of them for you to merge data.

You can import photos and videos to the computer from one mobile device and then get them to another device. And most of the brands support this way, even the Apple iPhones – you can sync photos to your iPhone using iTunes.

We love music and often listen to music using our handsets. If you are using Groove, Spotify, or some similar streaming services, it could be so easy to transfer songs to your new device by installing the related apps on your mobile phone – generally, the music will be downloaded to your device once you log in with your accounts.
If you saved songs into the storage of your android phone, you can export them to the computer and then put them on another phone. For an iPhone, you can use iTunes to add songs.

Not correct.
I purchased the Wondershare lifetime app after reading a line in their advertising that implied the existing data in the receiving phone would remain.
After downloading the software, hooking up the phones, etc, the app said it was ready to restore the data.
I cancelled immediately and then spent the next hour contacting Wondershare tech support.
After an extended chat they said no, you cannot combine ois and android.
