    Hey man!
    I remember some of the old KEYone videos that CB did, and they mentioned that when you're switching phones, there is a tap-to-switch type feature.

    Have you used it? Does it transfer data and settings well? Are there any shortcomings, or things I should be aware of?

    I'm going to be switching from my old KEYone to a new KEYone, and I'm considering trying this feature. I just don't want anything to get left behind

    Thanks!
    Have a good one!

    When I received my replacement KEYone, I used Content Transfer. It brought almost everything over, but if I recall it limits the number of text messages in history to 3000 or so. I also used SMS Backup & Restore to keep a full backup of the texts.

    Content Transfer should get everything for you, but you'll have to log into any apps after the transfer is done, and some apps may have to be manually installed.

    Also, I would be sure that any photos are backed up to your cloud app of choice. If you have an SD card, you can also move critical files/music/pictures over to it and simply insert it into your new device to have an extra layer of duplication.
